Jumping Photo

Just got a new trampoline and was able to grab some photos. How does this one look?

 

if that's a point and shoot I think it's a really high quality pic!!!

 

He's quite red.

 

Thank you it is a point and shoot. As for the red, I tried to get rid of some of the red but kept a little bit because he was red in the face from jumping.

 

No I mean his entire body is red. Thats not blood, thats a color shift from the flash. Turning down the red/orange in his skin tones, will still maintain his "flushed" look.

 

Ok, I'll edit it some more to get rid of the red and actually I didn't use the flash.

 

Here is one with less red. I see what you mean with there being too much red. I think that may have been a little too much editing on my part.

 

How the heck do you do that? I tried getting shots of my 12 year old jumping off a swing set a few weeks ago with my canon rebel and his limbs would always be out of focus or blurred.

cool shots though!

 

Have a fast shutter speed and wait till the top part of the jump, they will be stationary for just about a second before they begin to fall.

 

ahhh, okay, thanks! I'll have to try that then. I used the sport setting on the rebel xs and just started shooting from when he left the swing to when he landed. I'll try and wait for the airborn/paused shot, lol!

thanks again!

 

Yeah, I pretty much did just what bdavis said.

 

I think it would look cool if the tampoline was edited out of the photo (still keeping the grass and houses in the background though). Just a thought. Nice capture though.
