james jumping

    i was in despair that i would ever find someone who would launch themselves upward so i could catch a picture. this 3 year old and his mom that we met at the cafe at IKEA were wonderful :):) he just kept jumping and jumping until we finally had a motion shot with 2 feet off the ground :):)

    THANK YOU, James :):)

    scavchal #1 It's Leap Year, so catch someone or something in the act of leaping (feet off the ground).

      Only after 18 photos did you get a 'keeper?' I've sometimes had to shoot 30 or more. Good thing this electronic photography simply consumes memory space instead of paper and chemicals. Nice story about how you captured this action.

      , his natural smile was absolutely a winner :):) i think he thought he needed to make a camera smile when we were taking his picture.
