The three musketeers :-)

This is one of those photos that was very hard to get, we were going fast, flying above the formation, then Major E' alerted me: ‘3oclock down’ and dropped the wing 90 Degrees to the right, and I took the shot, I shot five shots on continuous burst, at first I was sure I missed the frame and did not have time to take another burst or check the LCD as Major E’ maneuvered up and away from the formation , I was smiling only a few hours later at the office, drinking the strongest coffee ever while viewing that long day of flight photography on the computer :-)

I love this photo, one of my favorite creations !
