[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I had to pull a lot of strings with the shooter(yellow shirt in this shot) because of a lot safety issues to get in that position to get this picture.
Oh and the heat from this F-14 Tomcat afterburner was so hot and there was all type of debree from the deck hitting my face and my lens, I'm just glad I got this picture. Tell me what you think. It was shot on the USS Enterprise (CVN 65)
This is probably my favorite military picture that I got on Enterprise.
I'm sitting inside the centerdeck hatch.

What a dynamic composition and deadly title to give. Great work.

We can really see the force of the wind coming off the jet by the way it is blowing his clothes. What ever it takes to get the shot!

How were you able to smugle the camera on deck?.... great one pal. Nice action photo on this one. I can smell the jet fuel, and hear the roar of the engines.

Hi Daiven,

Woah... so nice. Great capture. The composition is very good. You can almost feel the action.

Have a nice day.

Hi Davin, Fantastic & perfect angle for F14 shot!! That's my favourite aircrft of all! It's great you share with us. Thanks so much!

Wong

I think one of your best shots.
Great view.
What I most love about this one is the dynamics...fast F-14.

Davin, this shot is simply excellent! Congrats. I really feel the burn!!
cheers

Killing machines should be banned from this site...

Excellent shot and composition.
The focal is very short to get this kind of perspective.

Jules

This is an amazing shot. Those of us who have never been that close to an active flight deck were in for a real treat with this shot. I really appreciate this shot. Thanks for sharing and I can't wait to see more photos.

Splendid capture man! Perfect shot of this deck. Bravo we almost feel the power of the engines.
Well done.

Steph.
