Paramotoring

Experimenting with black and white editing through tutorial in internet. Convert to Black n White using CS4 monochrome's channel mixer adjustment layer. No editing on the ray of light which neutrally available because the sun light was just behind the cloud. C&C are always welcome as well as suggestion and information sharing about converting color to B&W in Photoshop. Everyone also invite to give appropriate tittle for this photo Thanks in advance.

Nice composition...I really like how the light shines through the parachute, also.

Thanks for drop your comment and the compliments

Very nicely done!

Overall a great shot, if I was being picky I would say it's slightly over exposed near the middle, but then again editing it to fix that may disrupt the rest of the shot...

How did you take this? where you in a plane or diving yourself?

Very nice shot Nieziam...

Thanks for sharing.. I am a great fan of HDRs, do you have this image in RAW? I'd like to see how Photomatix would process an HDR version of the same..

This is the old picture taken during Putrajaya Hot Balloon Festival in March 2009. At this time i'm using the shutter priority and have no control about the f stop. Just try and error .To be honest at this moment i'm really new in DSLR and not even know all about the shutter,aperture and ISO and etc. Just choose this photo for black n white editing and i thinks i seems doesn't work for this picture because of lack in the tonal range and contrast but thanks for those who like it.

For your information, I'm was on the land to capture this picture. Since this was the exhibition festival, the glider just fly around the designated area,so i just wait for the right moment to capture this picture. Anyway thanks the comments.

Thanks ridzadi, I'm sorry i have captured this picture with JPEG format...I not even know how to use RAW format at the time i shoot this photo... I also really like to see the HDR image, maybe you can share some info on HDR editing because I'm really new with it. I have try it for a couple of time but the output is out of my satisfaction..
