Eric Corrus > Here I recreated a picture I took last year that has gotten me a lot of compliments.  (http://epiqs.smugmug.com/gallery/2561666_b44ug/1/134777227_FFqde#134777227_FFqde) I wanted to use my new lens (Canon 17-85 IS) and hopefully "fix" some of the things that bugged me about the original, namely the clarity and sharpness.  After about 20 shots, I think I succeeded :)

A 5-second shutter shows its progress from about 1/8-mile out until the moment the tailhook strikes the deck and pulls the arresting wire.
