Michael, are you quite certain that your ancestors didn't come from 30s-40s France?

Does seem a bit of a steal, doesn't it?

But, hey, I was there, the moment presented itself, and I pressed the shutter.

Steal? Not at all - just good listening to the voices of those who've gone before. I do it all the time; amazing the things I think they tell me!

Indeed, not a steal. Just being ready, sensing the moment, and catching it.
Just what I would have wanted to do in that situation (but by the time I reacted, the doorway would have been empty).

Eric, imagine if you'd been trying to catch it on a cellphone where you couldn't even see the image!

Isn't it exactly how the gentleman we've been implicitly talking about in this thread got his most famous image (the jumping guy)? Sans the cellphone part, of course.

Were you a lawyer at one time, Slobodan? Those are weasel words!

HC-B could see the shot, but not through his viewfinder. You are confusing him with miracle makers.

Actually, getting closer to the pic in question - here - it reminds me more of Ronis...
