What a cracker at Newcastle 19:45!

With life pictures I've definitely said Sovereign Class in front of Em Jay Kay.

Once the slow-mo was shown - not so much...

When exactly do you pounce in a case like this, @jamesedwards -?
I went the wrong way again. Fooled by the quirk of the angle there which occurs when one head is much higher than the other.

The similar photo from the other week stopped me going in as big as I might otherwise have, so thanks for small mercies!

Interesting photo print. 2 is the winner by a whisker on the main shot but looks a much clearer nose ahead in the mirror. Looks to me like the mirror was not lined up properly?

To satisfy my curiosity I replicated the Newcastle slo-mo illusion with a few pens.
