This is my buddy James (aka Keiomi). I was sitting around one day and thought of the idea but with a girl in a white dress but when I posted on Facebook that I needed a female model he posted to ask if he could do it instead. I'm glad he did because I love the way this picture turned out. The only thing I wish was different was the sky. I wanted an orangeish-reddish sky.

VERY fun. Great idea and very nicely executed! I think the sky worked out just fine for this, too.

Didn't see this in voting but came across it in Posthumous awards. Very nicely done, amusing and something I'm sure many of us can appreciate!

OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy). I'll be picking one of these images for my Mu (most underrated) award:

Positives: The colouration - this really makes the image special; it really works. I like the way it's all about the guy but it's all about the landscape and the sky too. If someone had have given me a verbal description of the image, I'd have said that it wouldn't work too well - I'd have been wrong.

Critical stuff: Nothing at all.

Overall: Fantastically well conceived and well executed to boot. Great stuff.

This photo leaves me wanting for a larger, more detailed subject. What are those teeny tiny objects that he's throwing away? One looks like a briefcase, which I was only able to deduce from the title of the photo. The second, that thing trailing from his body, I have no clue what it is. Is this a story about him, or about the sky? I'm not interested in the sky at all in this shot.

Very cool. I know the feeling. Nice job on setting this up.

I like the concept a lot. I wish the subjects were a bit larger in the frame.
