If you're wondering how high this is...

Looks like fun doesn't it..?
No, you're right it doesn't, which is why I didn't have a go. Anyway I had all my camera kit to look after didn't I?!



Number two - take the bike for a spin...

Actually what I mean't was...oh never mind....

#1 and #3 are collages of consecutive frames taken in sequential mode, (3fps). I could probably have taken more of the bungee jumper but I would have had to pan down as well to catch him at the full extent of the rope. Something to try next time.

I get the willies just looking at those photos...

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Oh yes!!! I Love the bungee jump me!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Loving the multi-frame effect - not seen it done on bungee before - very nice

That's really quite high isn't it!

Like the BMX guy as well - what aperture where you at?

 

[adrian jordin]

Thanks guys...

The bungee jumper was 1/400 at f7.1, ISO 100 using the top end of 40-150mm zoom ,(ie 300mm equivalent)

The cyclist was 1/320 at f7.1, ISO 100 with the same lens at 58mm (116mm equivalent)

nah, i think i'll pass.. love the first photo, great series.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Adrian great photo's. First glance I thought three guys were jumping at the same time. Thought this was novel and then realised one guy did not have a bungee. Too scary for me.

 

[adrian jordin]

Well spotted, Julian...I forgot one bit of masking!

There's a new version up there with all of them safely tethered...

 

[Pete Askew]

Excellent Adrian. The bunjee jumper works very well indeed.
