Love this shot. I don't understand why it wasn't higher up but I guess you can enjoy it yourself anyway. I would.

I like the capture but would like to see more focus on the Bike & Rider, is the landing in the death challenge?

This is a great shot! Looks like he could be 20 feet in the air or 2000. Great Work!

I had to come back and give this a 10 instead of 9...Love IT

Dynamic capture with the nearly straight up angle and lots of sky. Unfortunately it leaves things a little dark on the undersides. But still a very cool photograph.

I think a better title would have been "Cheating Death". Very nice stop action and positioning.
