Great Shot! It has lots of appeal. I wish that the expression on his face was more evident.

Behind The Lens

Location

the photo was taken in a stadium in my city Chtrkessk

Time

Middle of a day

Lighting

It was a very sunny day. And the sun was right behind the athlete

Equipment

camera Pentax K20D and Pentax DA 10-17 3.5-4.5 fisheye lens

Inspiration

I am very attracted to the ability of people to overcome the force of gravity. at least for a while. And I always try to find some unusual angle. This time I was lying under the barrier and the athlete jumped through me.

Editing

minimal postprocessing

In my camera bag

i love Pentax cameras! they are the best for me. They provide high image quality and at the same time allow you to work in the most difficult conditions - in the rain, in the sand, in the cold ..my set consists of two cameras - Pentax K-3 and Pentax K-1 and 10 lenses. From 10mm to 600mm. There is also a flash, a carbon tripod with ball and panoramic heads.

Feedback

in order to make the photo interesting - you need to try to show the viewer something unusual. For example, find an interesting angle.
