Tell him I saw him smiling once, so he better not show his face in public again.

More seriously - this is an exemplary sequence of what looks like some pretty exemplary moves. Just to be nickety pickety I can see one or two places where e.g. jeans have been masked out against trees and the line is too hard - maybe a little blur or smudge would have helped there. Then again, as all the shots have the same background it shouldn't have been necessary to paint the mask right in to the jeans anyway. Maybe it's me hallucinating again. Give me a pint of what I'm drinking. Oh. I've a powerful suspicion of Neat Image pollution too...

having said all that I'll wind my crying neck in as it's a whole lot better than anything I could have done, and in difficult lighting, too.

scalvert: look at that. that's the face of cold deliberation. a confident semi-smirk of accomplishment. that's not natural.

muckpond: he nailed it, dude! totally natural!

karmat: he symbolizes the karmic wave.

scalvert: wave? I thought it was a circle.

karmat: if the surfboard is ready, the wave will come.

scalvert: that's a skateboard.

karmat: exactly.

scalvert: (crosses eyes and slaps forehead)

Cool perspective, I like that we can see his expression. I wish his hand weren't cropped on the right side.

Pretty good execution. I like that you got down low and shot it at an angle.
The shot could use some more room from left to right so maybe a landscape orientation would have been best. Also, the color of the shirt changes from frame to frame. You should have fixed that.

Shame about cropping the hands of #1 and #5, but a nice image overall.
