january is for jumping

    Why is it that June is for Jumping? I'll jump in January too.

    I fought the urge to rotate this so that the horizon is straight, because then I would crop out my smile, which I sorta like. :)

    Happy Sliders Sunday!! and Having fun, for Theme of the Week!!

    PS. Now that I'm friends with Flickr_Rick I feel like sort of a chump in the jump department. Gotta put that camera lower, eh?! :)

      Never crop your smile!! You rock Stacie :)

      I like the crooked horizon too Stacie. It's a great counterpoint to your lower legs going the other way. Just as your scarf counters your arms.

      Who says horizons have to he horizontal? Damn photo nazis. Probably Mr. Williams in the seventh grade yearbook class........ Picasso never heard of a horizontal horizon......... Neither did Jerry Garcia or Frank Zappa.

      I love the shadow too. It's real.

      Thanks Moni!
      Didn't you know, I am a superhero!
      Aw shucks, Rick!
      Thanks X, and I think it's my newspaper job that makes me want to do that. :) But here on Flickr, I will lean towards Zappa!

      Those colours are perfect. It reminds me of 60's advertising for some reason. (I'm still here and watching... not much time for Flickring out here in the Philippines)

      Hey, did you feel me thinking about you Matt? I keep going back to your stream, looking for a sign of life. Hope work isn't all work, and you are well and good.

      I like the horizon being just a tad off kilter. It add character!

      I am going to have to try this sometime. With fourteen inches of snow outside, however, I think I will wait for June or July. :-)

    30. ~ cynthiak ~ (slowly making my way back) (4 months ago | reply)

      Excellent jump and so glad you left that beautiful smile of yours! The tipped horizon goes perfectly with a jump shot - that's how the horizon (and everything else) looks to me every time I jump!! ;) Love your processing here, too! I love how your scarf looks against that pretty aqua sky!!
