Cousin Mike Jumping

PHOTOGRAPH INFO

These photographs were taken tonight. Cousin Mike was kind enough to jump around for me for a little while in an open field at sunset.

I thought it would be more fun to look at the thumbnails altogether rather than just one large image. I like how the silhouettes and the sky change, and I love the sense of inexhaustible motion! Thanks, Mike! :)

Post-processing: Shot with the Canon EOS 5D and the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L lens at 24mm, ISO 800, shutter speed 1/200s and aperture f/6.3. No post-processing except to reduce the images to thumbnails.

Thank you for visiting Durham Township!

Very different idea. It's wonderful. You come up with the most interesting ideas.

Fantastic series of cousin Mike! I wish I had the patience to re-assemble this into a tumbnail sized animation. Would be lots of fun too!

I recognized cuzzin Mike from the first photo even though it looks like a shadow. You can run cuzzin but you can't hide. Wonderful idea as usual by Kathleen.

What a minute, I think this is a coded message.....Cuzzin Mike is trying to tell us something if we could only....can't quite make it out....lets see......got it! Sez he's traped in an open field, forced to jump up and down and it's getting dark......Can't we DO anything?

Yes, we can think Kathleen and Cuzzin Mike for two great performances.

THX x2,

I dislike, sorry.

Well done. I think perhaps though a grayscale version would be more graphic and impactful.
