Default I believe I can fly..!

I believe I can fly...

This was taken in a beautiful park in Cesky Kromlov, Czech Republic.
The guys had to jump a few times before I got this shot! But I love their faces.

Please let me know what you think and hope you enjoy this!

Thanks!
maybe thinking that it could be a fun assignment!

Cool shot! I think you did a great job capturing the action. You know there are entire groups and webpages devoted to people jumping in pictures?

Fantastic shot! Nicely done! The "uptight" fellow in the middle makes a nice contrast against the loons on the sides!
