Hardest/Luckiest Shot you ever had

It's all about being at the right place at the right time :-)
Post a video you caught on accident, or a video that was very challenging to get!

I guess you could say this was lucky. Finding the bullfrog and getting close to him was one thing but having him start to croak was another.
I like this one because you can see the vibrations in the water.

My partner and I were at an airshow. I was following this WWII bomber and heard a loud explosion. Startled I dropped my camera and saw flames in my view finder. I instinctively followed the flames and these war planes flew past. Voila!

A couple of years ago on the way to NAB, I just happened to be at the right place at the right time. These were shot over 2 hours and time lapsed. It was the beginning of the bridge superstructure for the new bridge into Nevada from Arizona. The Hoover Dam autobahn to come - so to speak. First clip was from the Arizona side, second clip was the same piece from the Nevada side.

right place at the right time pickup was left on city dump road and set on fire.


I stuck around and also caught the firefighters putting it out

sorry forgot this one, just happened to be in the right place when this python got fed, the rabbit was actually alive but I didn't get my camera out fast enough

A lot of the stuff I shoot is wildlife (in the nicest possible way), and it's always a good moment when an animal or bird does something unexpected. I was shooting a crow sitting on a fence, and it barfed up a pellet of undigestable matter. I knew owls did this but until I saw it happen I didn't know other birds did.

Thanks, have a couple more of them, one where you can see it actually twist the neck of the poor rabbit, just thought it wasn't forum appropraite.
