I got this idea for this shot when I thought of someone floating in the air but I could never get a good background but today I was walking around and the sky looked really pretty so I decided to use that. This was really simple to shoot I just had Sara jump into a meditative position and then used a really fast shutter speed while laying on the ground and shooting up. Post processing wasn't alot, just some color balance editing and contrast stuff.

Now thats relaxing. wish the model's face was tilted a bit downwards. did not like the darsh/big/harsh shadow under her face. excellent image nonetheless.

This is great. Its a wonderful day, and the wisps of clouds gives a strong feeling of motion. Very nicely done.

Awesome shot! Nice contrast with the black clothing and bright blue sky. I like how she is off-center.

Wow! This one made me smile! Good job!
 03/07/2007 08:01:02 AM
excellent use of a trampoline! While I really am appreciative of the concept, I'm undecided about the all-black outfit. I know it fits the whole "meditation" thing, but it leaves an enormous flat emptiness in the composition of the image. Since the rest of the image is also without substantial content, I find this a bit unsatisfying.....
