 Thank you all very much for my first 2nd place ribbon and personal best score. The credit goes to my daughter, Shelby, though. She had to make this spectacular 'c-jump'. I just had to take the picture. Single strobe, very high up, to create the dark and contrasty image, perfect jump, a bit of luck on timing. Thank you again for all the kind words and encouraging comments. I appreciate it

Great niner shot. For a bland background at first sight, the darker tone at the right and lighter tone at the left enhances the wow fartor and focus on the ground defying fabulous jump feat. Thanks

Awesome capture. I love the peace in her face even though this is such an intense split second jump
Well done indeed.

Great capture. The use of black and white here is very good, as is the lighting and use of negative space.
