Mate, this is a fantastic photo. I like everything about it, even the slightly off horizon which adds to the freedom of the hang-glider.

Great way to use a light source within the shot.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935. Our mug is smug
as per the above comments, and I also love the way the most visible clouds in the photo are behind the 'glider, making it almost look like it's leaving clouds in its wake. The little bit of foreground on the right is just perfect for showing the launch area, then the massive drop-off to the far horizon and below shows the height. Every element works. Great shot!

thanks for the great response guys
it was intended... but very lucky as well. they take off really quick and only enough time to get three, maybe four shots of the launch, especially when they don't announce that they're going to launch... Nathan
