post your best shot	Can't Post

don't know if this has already been done but i think it would be cool to post the best skydiving related picture YOU HAVE taken to this date. it can be of someone else, of something else, of you, what ever but it has to be jumping related.

As soon as i get home i'll post mine, don't have any good ones here at work though.

Here is a shot I really like Smile

My son, Mike Harrop, hanging from the strut getting ready for his second freefall with his instructor, Chris Day, out on the step getting ready to give Mike the word - GO!

You can see the eye contact between them as the moment is approaching. Okay, okay - I'm emotionally involved and seeing too much! But I still really like the shot!

I took this with a 35mm disposable camera. Even low tech works great sometimes Smile

I got this one published Jan 05 issue of Parachutist. I have others that are of more sentimental value, but I like this one as it took some effort to get in position with Birdman Mike.

Heres 2 from last year, it's too early to have a favorite this year, but the on I posted in the condensation thread is in the running. Oh, by the way except for re-sizing the whole image these are not cropped or photoshoped in anyway.

I'm starting to get some good ones. 1888 doesn't show it in the recompressed, resized version that I've attached, but the original is gorgeous. 1848 was pure luck.

Re: [superstu] post your best shot [In reply to]	Can't Post

some of these favorites are important to me because of WHO is in them..

1. TM Sue Hughes exits last from the otter
2. TM Joman King, at the instant the ripcord is pulled
3. swooping to my slot on an 18 way
4. some friends climbing to altitude
5. My wife Nancy's first Tandem Jump
6. words of wisdom
Nice idea for a thread...... Smile

Re: [superstu] post your best shot [In reply to]	Can't Post

I wanna play too

Here are a few of my more favorites

The one tandem shot is obviously a crop from the other (but still thought it was cool cause we were acutally going for that shot).

As much as shooting video is fun - getting a good still shot is what makes it all worthwhile for me.
