nice crisp b&w

Strange framing ! You should have let the space free in front of the child, not behind.

Why? Surely that's subjective and shouldn't HAVE to do anything?

Well, for sure, rules are made to be transgressed, but one of the basical rule of photography is to let space in front of your subject if he goes or watch in a direction.
The problem here is that the little girl jumps to the right and as there's no space on his right, I have the feeling that she's going to jump on a wall (represented by the edge of the picture).

Rules are made to be broken... I am an artist, not a photographer...

Nice shot, but shouldn't all feet be off the ground to qualify as a jump?

They don't just spring off all four feet. The back feet will lift off the ground as the pony goes over the jump - this particular part of the jump is called the 'height of the action' as the front legs tuck up and under, then as the forward momentum continues the back legs lift - hope that makes sense - I actually have the whole sequence photographed for this particular pony/jump but this one with the 'height of the action' is generally what sells.

Superb action shot..

nice

Nice one, it reminds me those Ipod ad

Remarkable!
Have you tried to crop the ground so as only to have sky & jumping guy^

That's not the ground but hills and houses far away ^^
I tried but the model was too low and the composition seemed wrong. :O

Nice, but I think a closer crop would help it

I think it works better with a lot of the sky cropped, about 1 or 2" above her head

Can this be considered a jump? I thought the kite would be lifting him. Just asking.

That's a cool shot, but it looks more like "lifting" than "jumping"

At kitesurfing this is considered to be a jump, so it is ontheme
