Jump Kick 1 (365.1)

My first strobist effort. One Vivitar 285HV set at 1/16th power, ceiling height about 6 feet in front and roughly 30 degrees to my left (to the right of the camera). Reflector on my right but not sure it was positioned correctly to bounce enough light back.

I am a green belt in Tae Kwon Do and let me tell you, I did this jump about 100 times to get the timing right. Unfortunately, I managed to amputate my big toe in the picture, but I think I might have the timing down a little better. I like the fierceness and the movement in this one best, but the composition in the other one is much better.

This is also my first addition to to the 365 days group (self-portrait a day). I tried it before, got to day 40 something and stopped.
