Photographer's Note
A glider pilot in a short final. The weather was extremely good for this time of year and although the sky was almost perfectly clear, thermal conditions were quite good to soar.

Hi Wolf,
After the Bayeux Cathedral, this one made me surprized to see from you, but when i checked your beautiful gallery, i saw that you are really into the joys of minimalist photography. Blue may seem too much here, yet it is essential, and the tilt of the glider is multiplying the aesthetics with two. What to say for the sharpness? I will nearly identify the pilot! This is amazing :)
Cheers,
Deniz

Hi Wolf!
What a clear and sharp image.WOW,I can see the sunglasses of the pilot.....
You placed the glider perfect in the frame and the contrast with the sky is amazing.

Hi Wolf
Nice shot of this glider flying by at high speed I suppose... The absence of horizontal reference makes it easy to rotate the picture and choose the most appropriate bank angle (according to composition rules) ...
A good job indeed !

Olá, Wolf
Verdadeira liberdade é o que se pode sentir quando se voa num planador com um céu tão azul.
Parabéns

Hi Wolf,
A strong diagonal composition. Good to actually see the pilot's face. Colour of the sky is perfect. Works well in all it's simplicity.

Bonsoir Wolf, la saison est idéale pour pratiquer ce sport, j’habite pas très loin du laboru près de Spa et je vois beaucoup de planeur c’est jour-ci, je trouve que tu as bien figer ton sujet, qui de plus est placer idéalement à 45°, le ciel uniformément bleu renforce la beauté de l’image, bien amicalement

Dag Wolf,
Dit is een van de mooiste posen van een zwever dat ik op TE gezien heb, met een sherpte omu tegen te zeggen, en prachtig weergegeven tegen een staal blauwe hemel, dit is gewoon grootte klasse, mijn complimenten voor dit schitterend werk.
Groeten uit Vlaanderen,
John.

Hi Wolf
Great action shot you present here - I like the diagonal composition giving the feeling of motion as well.

Hi Wolf,
Un très joli cadrage avec une belle diagonale et des couleurs qui petent comme j'aime, bravo à toi pour cet excellent cliché.
