Flying*

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Football... needless to say, 72 caught up to him moments later when he slipped as he landed. Unfortunately some big guy got in the way of that shot.

Also, is this a desicive moment? Not really sure what isn't a fleating moment, since everything really counts as one. Maybe it's just rare events captured? Just curious, as other than the fact this guys floating, it's just another sports image in the end... maybe if he was getting hit and his knee was bending backwards it would be more in line with the theme (not that I'd wish that on them, it just gives a better picture (sorry) of what I think the theme might mean).

Ha, interesting, it's actually the U of A bears vs the U of C Dinos (Eskimos got their colours from the U of A, as they had to borrow the U of A uniforms during their first game(s) back in the day). Not sure if the same is true for Calgary. Cheers, Jeff.

I could almost like this shot if it wasn't the Stamps vs. Eskimos (Go Lions!) :)
