J U M P

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Inspired by Heaths entry in one of the challenges I finally got around to shooting my version. Any CC is appreciated and welcome :D

Nice, it looks good and has captured the movement well, its just a little odd that there is no head. :lol: How did you do it ?

I was lying flat on my back, while I asked my stunt man to jump over me. The "no head" worried me at the start, but now I actually like it. Its just at the angle the shot was taken at...I didnt clone it out... :D

A stunt man did this with my first ever P+S camera and landed on top of it (an me). Definately not a shot to try when either party is intoxicated.

Ouch..I guess I will not be shooting this again... :shock: BTW, what are peoples opinion about the headless boy? Does the image suffer from the head not being visible?

Yes and No.

I was expecting a head, so was disappointed when there wasn't one.

On a third viewing, it looks fine as I'm no longer expecting a head.
