I think!

I shot the beach landing in SXM, and a friend (Greg Drawbaugh) shot the US 757 as we landed. I can argue that the two shots are taken at the exact same time, give or take a milli-second, look at the kid running. I think this was 2006 or so.

Millisecond? That's one fast kid to be able to run 50 yards in that amount of time... Or am I going blind?

Look at the kids right leg, he's running and the leg is up on both shots.

Yes, but (again, disregard if I'm going blind), on one shot he is on the left of the aircraft, on the other shot he's on the right.

RomNYC,

The kid is closer to the camera than the 757 (no photoshop, I promise).

How would you know he's on the other side of the aircraft?

Thats my story and I'm sticking to it.

I went to SXM close to 10 times, one month each time, so I'm pretty Maho-savvy. The kid looks too far away on the larger picture to be on the right of the plane. Not a big deal, optical illusion maybe. The idea of having these 2 shots together is quite cool though.

Awesome photo. HEY LET'S ARGUE ABOUT IT. ha

Either way, cool shot. I love those reverse angle opportunities.

No argument, just healthy debate.

I like healthy debate! :smile:
