Captured at Matsushima Airbase during the 50th-anniversary celebration of the Blue Impulse aerobatic team, this image documents the precision of the 'waterfall' maneuver. The photographer utilized a 300mm focal length to isolate the aircraft against the sky, freezing the high-speed action with a rapid shutter speed. The setting carries profound historical weight, as the airbase was previously devastated by the 2011 tsunami. This photograph is award-worthy for its technical clarity in capturing complex motion and its ability to frame a moment of resilience and celebration within the vibrant, high-energy atmosphere of Japanese aviation culture.

This pic remembers me our last conversation, and as Morihei Ueshiba wrote in The Art of Peace βConflict between material and spiritual science creates physical and mental exhaustion, but when matter and spirit are harmonized, all stress and fatigue disappear.β Thatβs you my friend a harmonized man. Congratulations.
At least I try my friend!, I still canΒ΄t get the total harmonization (and maybe I never will) but during my trials I am enjoying this life at the most.
Take care and muchas gracias.
