WOW! Top points for originality here! I love the concept! It says" the hell with it!" to me. :-) I think there's a little too much negative space at the top. Cutting about a quarter of it would draw my eye faster to the main subject! 8

Nice use of thirds. Looks a little oversharpened - not too keen on the bright outlines of some parts. I like the B&W here - good choice. I like the interpretation of the challenge - clever. Well done.

Hahahaha. Very cool. I thought this was a skydiver when I saw the thumbnail. Nice catch. Looks like arms outstretched to the wind. Nice negative space. Looks like it is at 20,000 feet. Good work!

Great contrast really helps the tie and shirt set itself apart from the sky. Love the fluffy clouds that you were able to capture. The way the tie/shirt seem to be flopping around in the air really give a great dynamic and sense of flight.

This is the most original entry in the "flight" challenge. Absolutely the best photo in the bunch. Great work.

Love it! Wonderfully quirky and inventive idea. Excellent composition - how cool that the curves of the tie edge the shape of the shirt. A little too much white cloud but overall one of my very favourites in this challenge.

I like your take on this topic....don't really fit to me but refreshing after so many less interesting shots. Did the color just not look right? I think I would have liked a bright color better. My vote won't count but it is a 9 to me...good job.

I love the shape of the tie

Definitely needs color! But I still love the shot!

Good use of negative space, and extra props for grayscale. Creative, a great capture, and I'm always a fan of vertical space.

This image really gives me the feeling of freedom from the constraints of the 9-5 workday world. I'm not sure if that's what you were going for, but there it is all the same! I do think it would be better if a fair amount of the upper sky was cropped out, but other than that I like the color scheme and the subject!

Creative take.

All right! This is great. So creative! Excellent composition, though a bit soft.

lol this is a great shot! Really makes me wonder if it is being thrown out the window by a girlfriend or what! Very creative.

Nice different idea for this challenge, no plane no seagull here :) Nice crop, and good call on the b/w. Fill in flash might have done good for this shot. Good lock

Interesting. Points for originality :)

fun, original, well executed (although i think i would have preferred a horizontal not portrait orientation). nice use of b&w.

Wow. Wonder how many shots it took to get the timing as great as that. Love it.
