Great shot, and I believe you when you say it was hard to get it. I would like to see it with a slower shutter speed too, to compare, I think with a slower shutter speed, that you would have more a feeling of action, movement. However, you obviously did not have the opportunity to bracket and try other speeds etc, this kind of pictures is a shoot and hit or shoot and miss kinda picture. And I definately have to say, yours is a shoot and hit.
