Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

This was fun.

I have pics where no part of the body is cropped out, but this one may be my favourite because they are perfectly in sync with eachother.

good idea. it would be easy to give him his foot back that way also!

EDIT - only problem being there would be overlap I'm thinking

Impressive series! :shock: That's where 8 fps comes handy! For a final editing, I'd put #1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 to avoid showing the two guys's body overlapping. I'm sure it must be really good fun to take those photos!

Nice, love to see these all side by side. Did you do take a series with just one jumper?

Great shots Heath, that D2X is working well for u mate. While i was in Adelaide today i went to a shop that had the D2x and had a bit of a look at for the first time i had actually got to hold 1. Very nice and compared to the Canon it is a lot lighter than the 1d mkII. Anyhow i am waiting off a bit save a few more bucks so good to see you are making good use of yours.
Cheers
John

Great shots Heath.

Shows that you do get something for paying all that dosh, but it still requires a good hand on the camera.

Great series Heath, surely this is simply teasing those of us whom the D2X is out of reach? :)

Very cool shots. Quite athletic. Wish i could do either a back flip or capture 8 frames a second. No such joy on either front :(
