Cole that is so intense! The way the picture is taken it looks more like a painting than a photograph... I like it.

He should have space further down instead of up, as this is where he is going. To ensure proper framing when shooting fast-paced scenes like this one, I would suggest zooming out a bit.

thanks. i wanted to. i couldnt. I figured they wouldnt let me on the 3m platform to shoot, so i brought the zoom lens. well 80mm is not very far out.
