But your waiting paid off ! What an image, unbelievable. I find it interesting that you can see where they put those explosives.

Very impressive documentary shot. Like a professional press photo. Mind you, you have the equipment to take this kind of shot with. Congratulations. I also like the birds flying away to the left. They definitely add to the action.

That's one powerful lens! You caught just the right moment - might be nice the see a couple of the later shots as she goes down. I always find the death of a ship a bit sad.

Cool! Love exploding things! :) Nice timing and capture. You could probably crop some sky out but besides that I like it. JP

Hey, this turned out well Barry. And look at the birds flying in tandem too. That was a bonus I reckon.
Great to catch the explosion and I hope you'll be showing some more of them. Well done.

What a great action shot. Your timing was perfect. I like all the flames from the blast.
Not bad considering you were so far away.

Awesome capture! The funny thing about this is the birds to the left, they are probably thinking "what the f...?"!! Thanks for taking the time to capture this one.

Wow, look like Pearl Harbor! The sharpness is indeed impressive when we consider the distance but you have a nice camera and objective ;) Your quick reaction pays off here and the bunch of birds on the left adds a nice touch

Well captured - right place, right time (obviously well planned). At such a distance this is a good shot - sufficient detail, not oversharpened and terrific colour in the fireball.
Thanks for sharing

Hello Barry,
This is a great action shot; I feel like looking at a movie :-) I'm glad to hear that it was sunk in purpose and that it is not an accident ;) You did very good capturing this great moment. The shutter speed you used was much appropriated and this is an excellent composition in a great POV. This is very well done! Thanks,
Claudine
