Here is my friend Janelle again. Just goofing off having fun!
Editing as follows; Crop, Selective' color for the green channels,blue channels and whites, boosted contrast, neat image to clean up a little. Have no clue if it is "Action" enough for everyone, but I love it :) Tends to be mid to high 5's when I love a shot though so we'll see.

wow - the blues and greens are great in this photo. Lots of impact from the colours, but it detracts from the woman who is really the subject of the photo. I think a little more fill flash might have helped here - but then you would blow out even more highlights on her dress, and reducing the natural light would lessen the beautiful blue and green....

A little too over saturated for my taste. The sky looks like a fake background and the grass looks like astroturf. Nice stop action on the girl.

where is her shadow? something just doesn't look real about the sky and the ground

Hmm. On one hand, this shot has enough wow factor to keep me interested. On the other hand, it's over saturated and there is too much emptu space above the model. Not sure how you setup this trick shot, but possibly shooting it from a lower angle would have given more sky space between ground and model, less ground overall and less sky above. This would increase the sense of 'the jump' which is really the action here. Overall a nice shot. Good work, 5.

I love the colour, pose, comp, simplicity..the light is a little contrasty on her face, but a nice shot...love the veil

Beautiful colors and sharp focus. Definitely meets the "fun" it promises.
