Every season we do a portrait series for our athletes of the year. We do it so often that we are constantly trying to come up with new ways to shoot the athletes. I came up the idea of shooting them all on the ground overhead with a ladder so it would give a flat floating effect. I'm still not convinced I really nailed it but I was still glad I tried something a little different. There were mixed reactions in the community. Some people loved it and other people hated it. It was the first time in a while that I got hate mail. One woman actually asked Jill, "Why are they on the ground...are they lazy?"

I love the different take! I think you still managed to convey movement and action, and that took real skill in positioning and placement. Great job!
nice works...creative and interesting view!
Kim I really like the tennis player one. Excellent. Two years ago I used a lift truck to photograph the Fall Classic race at the Natural Bridge Speedway. If you would like to photograph there sometime I can take anywhere on the Track including the Pits. I think it would be an experience you would not forget. If you want let me know: I can be reached at 434 229 1114 or at zack12348@hotmail.com
