        Numbers 2 and 5 stand out for me in terms of displaying the strength required to toss this thing.

        A beard seems to be mandatory.......

        Yellow tights in the last shot rather dodgy.......but I'm not telling him!
        Canon EOS R5, R6 plus the usual suspects ......

          Thanks Paul, Brian & Bo for the comments. I'm pretty impressed with the 18-400, it is a main stay on the camera.

                Great stuff Tom - I like the last best - I'm not sure whether he is throwing the weight or vice versa!

                  Nice action set, Tom. That must be a tough event; it appears to make one's hair completely disappear!

                    Nice set Tom... but a little ball like that, they want to try humping a large canon prime around for a day, that'll build muscles on them...

                              Well no use shouting Duck Trev, as half of the photogs would pop up and start scanning the heavens.
