Nice, but the shot I wanna see is 2 seconds later when he hits the ground face first ; )
A great idea nicely executed.

Great pose! The way his body curves makes the unusual composition of putting space behind instead of in front of the subject a good choice. His clothes and hair contrast well with the background but his face sort of blends in, giving the image an abstract quality. I especially like the interaction of the model with the tree right behind him: his feet are aligned with the trunk, the branch extends forward to meet his hand, and his head meets the foilage at the top.

Nice use of thirds. Good focus. I like the colourisation, nice editing.

This is nice and original. If the subject didn't have the arch in his back and his arms at his side, this wouldn't have been much of a shot. Nice positioning.

Good catch, but would be much better against a blue sky or some other plain background. Alternatively, a wider aperture would blur the background for a similar effect.

The execution is good. Only the corner of the building distracts from the concept. I even like the trees. 9
This might be more outstanding with a bluer sky. I know, you have no control of the sky, but you could shoot it over on a nicer day. It might be more mystical if there are no leaves on the trees. And throw in some fog if you can. I'm only saying all this because it is such a wonderful idea and deserves more exploration.

cool shot. just as a thought, I think that i'd like to see some more negative space on the right.

Very nice capture and a great idea. Background is too busy which spoils the dynamism of this concept.

Wait a minute. Is this guy really suspended in air on his own? It's a fabuluous picture. Love his posture and facial expression.

Funny and very original. Good one, however the background is competing against your main subject.

this is a wonderful shot - trampoline I suspect (?) and there will probably be a lot of comments about the background but I can understand it...the small branch behind him is unfortunate but overall the image is a fine response to challenge

Dare devil? Wow good shot only sorry you weren't a bit closer and moved a bit to the right. Still this is fine shooting.......good work and good action.

Fun subject, good illusion. I wish the subject stood out better from the background - if he were wearing all black or red perhaps or if he were lit and the trees were darker.
