"TPTTP of photography-Set 2

Now once you have the timing down with one person it's time to move on to using two people. The challenge here is to now pick which person you are going to watch and time yourself with as they both jump. The real tricky part is to get both of them to jump at the same time. Even to have them with their hands in position and their faces showing the proper realism can be quite tricky.

These two were probably one of my best catches yet. Both in about the top of their jump and both at the same time. Not an easy thing to do.

In this one the trick was the fact that both of them were literally turning around during the action but I luckily caught it at the right time.



Have fun practicing these types of action shots. (Again with only one chance to do it right each time they jump, no multiple shooting in 3 seconds because your flash units have to recharge.) Of course the real answer is to get faster cycling flash units but I am not on that kind of a budget.
