Day 6b: Cooling off after the jump

I like this shot. After looking at it a bit, I noticed the vertical is off a bit. There are some great tutorials under the Learn that help with straightening photos and contrast masking (a way to help edit when the difference between the lights and darks are too big.)

Day 6a: The Jump... off

Good strong jump. You're right about the background. Two possiblilities: 1) Use your DOF to blur out the background. 2)Take the shot from another angle to provide a better background, ie: camera on the ground looking to the sky, camera on the side/back of you, etc.

Moving the camera to a different angle may also help get the shadows where you want them - it won't make them softer though.

Tomorrow, I'd like to see a smile. ;-)

Not my favorite, still worth looking at it. It does make me wonder what the rest of you is like. And are you evil like the color implies?

Love seeing a photographer in his element.

The bright light in the background draws my eye from your face. You'll want to watch the details in the back that can make or break your shot.

Wonderful expression and feel.

This is hidden for adult content! If a guy can't show shoulders without it being hidden, we really will have to watch out.

Nice image, good lighting, really shows strength. Well done.

I like the pose and the area. The rail works as a leading line and takes my eye right to the car at the end. It would work better to have the rail take my eye to you - perhaps by leaning over both rails, etc.

Enjoyable image.

You look good in blue.

Oh - you're wearing a white shirt in the shower. A very nice white shirt at that. Reminds me of the handsome shirts I've seen in Mexico.

Love the lighting on the water on the door. The lighting on your face is a bit strange on the forehead.

Where do you come up with these? Very fun. Highly imaginative, and probably not Basic or Advanced legal, but awesome.

Did anyone mention that it's good to light your face, or were they too busy looking at your backside?
