Challenge: Free Study 2009-10 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D90
Lens: Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f/2.8 XR Di for Nikon
Location: Philipines
Date: Oct 17, 2009
Aperture: f/20
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/250 sec
Galleries: Candid, Children
Date Uploaded: Oct 29, 2009

 This photo was also taken at Sitio Pulo Brgy. Tanza Navotas City Philippines.

I saw a bunch of kids playing along the shores and I asked them to jump, so I captured this image.

I used Shutter priority for this image to freeze the jump shot. I post-process this image via Lightroom 2 initially, with adjustments on exposure, black, highlights et.al. then do my final retouching on CS3, by burning the silhouette further.

It was a day like most others. The sun shone, the clouds wafted through the sky, the wind was susurrant among the trees.

People awoke that day, and did what people do. They went to their jobs, they tended their fields, the children began to play.

Yet without warning, and with screams of horror that circled the globe, it all came crashing to a deadly halt, though because of the nature of the event, indeed, there really was no crashing at all. In a matter of seconds, humanity went from going through life as they always have, to suddenly being thrust off the earth, and sent hurtling into the skies, as gravity ceased to be.

7 - Nice - for me it is even more powerful with a tighter crop, especially on the right to lose the 'flag'.
