Here a few pics i got a couple of weeks ago with a friend of mine. He is pretty nimble so we got some really cool jumping shots. I lit the shot with 2 profoto strobes and triggered it with the pocket wizards.

Camera: Canon EOS 5D
Exposure: 0.005 sec (1/200)
Aperture: f/4.5
Focal Length: 24 mm
Exposure: 0.00
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV

Wow, these shots are wonderful. The first and the third one are spectacular. And the background itself can be used as a texture shot.
BTW are these jumps real, or these are results of postprocessing?

OMG I love these!!

Whilst the jumping itself is amazing, your skill in capturing it brilliant and your friend a really photogenic guy, what makes it for me is that background
