Nice shot, I'd give it a go.
Your photo is a lot better than mine, take a look here :- http://www.myfinepix.co.uk/competition/entry/526951
Don't try to be a great man just be a man, and let history make it's own judgements.

Beautiful shot - love the colours.VBOL
Thanks for your comments re my kingfisher, I must admit I'm very excited, thought I'd never get on the scroller.

Nicely timed action shot Vivien. The colours of the parachute really stand out against the rich blue of the sky.

Wow Viv, that's some parachute. Wonderful colours. It is an amazing experience. I had a guy on my back when I did it though, he did all the work getting us down.
Love the colours against the vivid blue sky, really shows the parachute up well. Very well captured and good luck Pam x
Thanks for your lovely comments on mine. I am really chuffed to have made the scroller with it. If you want to go again, give us a call and I will come

I had a go when Jacqui and I were holidaying in the Greek Islands (Poros) and it was a great experience that I'll never forget. That was before we were married so it was over twentyfive years ago (they probably couldn't get me off the ground now!).
This is a great shot. Your subject is big enough to see good detail but small enough in the frame to suggest great height and open sky, and the colours are really vivid too. One suggestion I'd make would be to have put him slightly up and right so that he's coming down into the shot and less central.
Love it Viv, great shot.
Kev.

Thanks for the great comments everyone. This brave person is, in fact paragliding and not parachuting. It was in Rhodes and they were being towed behind a speed boat; still very brave in my eyey though!!

Brilliant colours Viv, looks very exhilarating. Did a hot air balloon ride for charity once, it was amazing so you never know. Wonder what it does for your blood presure? lol
Regards and Best wishes for the comp.

Avery nice photo, stunning colours and very well focused. A very lonely place to be... Especially if something goes wrong.
