From a recent water ski show. What I like about this picture is not just the action moment, but all those water droplets nicely backlit, and the lovely late afternoon light in the background.

"OK, guys, just hold that pose while I focus..."

Neat shot, Slobodan.

I guess this proves they are not really in sync, but very close. But like Eric said, those water drops are very cooperative to freeze like that so you can take a nice shot.

Excellent capture.

Well caught - and I agree about the lighting. Could I gently suggest that toning down the really vivid green line of grass just a little would be an improvement?

Great stuff, Slobodan. And I'll bet you weren't in burst mode.

9.5 for the photo.
8.5 for the flip.

Nice catch! Agreed on the backlit drops.
I haven't ever tried to shoot water skiing seriously but have shot a bunch of pond skimming which is briefly the same, I imagine.
