Jump !, a photo from Geneva, West

Photographer's Note

In the corner of plaine de Plainpalais, is the place for young people gathers, playing skates, bikes (there available skatepark), especially in the spring or summer.

When we went there to take some photos, they asked whether I was reporter from some country :), and they were very eager to pose :D. Then I told them that I am just an amateur photographer from internet forums :D. then they still let us taking picture of them

Great shot here, Cessy! You catched him really at the right moment and it looks like a flying biker! Well done!

Hi Cessy, this is an amazing photo. You have caught the jumper in this high position. Well contrast and well focused. Well done.

To make him even more airborne, I've cropped the picture to remove som of the ground. Hope you like it.

A great catch! Now I want to see you do this jump! That guy doesn't even have a helmet on! That is nuts. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Very clear shot of this biker, I like the angle taken here and also the pose, very good timing too, well done

Nice action shot of the biker, Cessy. Excellent timing to have him hovering in this position above the ramp, and in front of the urban setting. The low shooting angle enhances the feeling of height. Very well captured in great sharpness.

Cessy,
Whatta great picture! Nice and clear - the colours and sharpness are great. As an alternative I beleive I would have cropped out the container and maybe kept the colourful backs and made a square format to make him fly higher.
Regards,
Magnus
