    Nice shot but kinda close?

    Seems like one could just pick off the POTUS quite easily , no?


    ZOom lens or not, seems pretty close, yes?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Thats a brilliant shot, was trying to get similar one with Concorde but only got lucky a few times out of countless thousands of times.

    Takes a lot of skill to time it just right or to zoom the lens in and click at split second.

    I wouldn't worry too much...that photographer was very likely being watched through a rifle scope the entire time he was there.
