The below set of fotos were taken using available light in a tent, without using a tripod. So please forgive why the fotos are the way there are.

This afternoon I went to a small circus, I spied this lovely lady atop an elephant n snapped her foto. Little did I know this shapely brunet knew how to fly without an air foil...........

Now her secret is out as U C her poised atop her flying tool, a Mack Truck mounted Cannon. Well it all happened fast from this point on. She disappeared in the barrel, the dude in the red suit gave a count down from five n she was off/out in a loud pop.........
I guess the loud bang startled me, I am sure U will agree, the below foto is the worse out of the bunch, I obviously moved the camera quite a bit. But U can C by the white streak rising out of the cannon's barrel, there she is.

We were sitting just off center from the almost vertical net, just 3o feet behind where she impacted. As she came zooming toward us with her arms spread out like wings, than just at that the last moment she tucks her head and impacts the net back first. It all happened so fast, I wish I could see it again, even if she weren't a stunning beauty........
