This was taken by a fellow Cowboy Action Shooter at a match in Alabama. The sun was just right and the exposure was just right, and you can see the bullet in flight. If you save the photo to a program where you can enlarge it enough, you can actually see the rotation.

If the metadata is right... here's what it was taken with: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-A400-Digital-Optical/dp/B0002OGJJA

So NO KIDDING on everything being JUST RIGHT.

Damn... I'm on my phone and can't see the exif data...what were the settings on the camera to capture that? Also...being cowboy action, is it possible that is a "light load" only going a couple hundred feet per second? If we can see the shutter speed in the exif, we can get a rough idea of the velocity of the round in the photo.
