The Raptor wallpaper, what time was it...

I was just wondering Jeff, if you remember what time of day you took that picture of Raptor's zero gravity roll that is available for wallpaper. I've been trying to duplicate the image over the last several Cedar Point trips, but the lighting just never seems to be right when I try.

It has to be a clear day, and you're looking at about 6 pm late season. You should see the newer shot I plan to post of Raptor...

Shooting CP is a pain, because the majority of the park can really only be shot early in the day. There are some places that work better late afternoon, most notably Raptor's south portions from the Blue Streak midway and Millennium Force's first drop, but those are exceptions. If you want a postcard sky for much of the park, you need to shoot early.
