This is the first time I've ever done anything like this and it was much harder than I expected! I shot 3 continuous photos and combined them with layers...I don't expect a good score, but I did learn something and had some fun with it.
I added each photo as a layer, masked them and used the paintbrush to reveal the parts back that I wanted. Flattened the image when I had it the way I wanted and then applied a curve and sharpened.

Oh man! This photo is so awesome, it makes me so happy to look at it. What a great job you did! And a top 10 star by it to give it the recognition it deserves :)
very nice and creative idea for the challenge, but , as many others, there is no way to verify this complies with the rules without seeing the sequence of originals, since this is not necesarily a natural sequence of a single motion.
I will give you the benefit of the doubt, and considering the technicals, particularly the efective use of dof, a 9 from me
This is great! The only thing I mighta done differently is to bring the stand up version of one or the other boy to the front - I might change my mind once I saw it that way though. Great job.
Pretty good shot. The composition bothers my eye a bit in that everything about the shot is fairly symmetrical except for their placement in the frame which is inexplicably skewed just enough to the left to make the shot unbalanced.
Now this is just wonderful. I bet this will be framed and hanging on the wall. I think of images like this as challenge success. So many people griped about the new rules, and yet without them people wouldn't put together such wonderful shots as this.
I can't think of anything that this image doens't have going for it. A 10 is an understatement!
