Sequence of Bret trying to stay in-bounds ... SHOWN REAL TIME!
He appears to be inbounds on image #3 but definitely has rolled out by image #5 a quarter second later.
He's probably 1/100s from catching the disc in image #4 ... but has he rolled out of bounds?

Per the sequence above, is Bret in-or-out on this? YOU MAKE THE CALL!!!

Regardless if he's in-or-out, it's a nice shot with Longs Peak in the background

Photography Notes: Pictures taken with a Canon 7D and 70-200/2.8ISv2 lens - mostly manual exposure at 1/5000s at F/2.8 and ISO 200.
First time using LightRoom4 (nice improvement over LR3) and Photoshop CS6 Beta - probably a bit over-sharpened in the later with the grass.
