Aerobatics, no nets, no nonsense.

Aerobatics, no nets, no nonsense. Just a crazy person hanging by some white ribbons off a crane.

The first two were taken around midday with a 70-210mm lense.

These next two give a bit more of a sense of height, taken with a 28-70mm lense. They were taken at a later show around 4:30pm.

She was very talented, and strong. I think she would have beat me in an arm wrestle. Touring Australia originally from the USA hence the two flags.

C&C welcome, I am not a big fan of the landscape one showing both flags but I included it to show the overall setting.

Enjoy!

Insane stuff - love the last pic.

Also I thought it was acrobatics? Aerobatics is stuff you do in/with a plane

Amazing stuff.
IMHO they would all be better without the flags or any of the BG stuff, IMHO they distract from the shot.
I suppose that seeing the height she was working from gave it a real sence of drama, it would be great to see that in one of the pictures.
Great colours.

You are right it's acrobatic's technically, she simply called herself the aerial circus so I guess I took aerobatics out of that. Appreciate the comments, the ole D70 still going strong.
