The Leap Series 2010
Philippe Halsmann has been an inspiration to me on my photographic work for the past 40 years. All of his images, especially the ones of jumping celebrities have been an interesting approach. He had the subjects perform something unusual in photographs but especially jumping. I have also decided to include this challenge to subjects and I have been compiling several subjects so far. There have been some limitations that have to do with the ability of the subjects to leap. Usually, this is limited to younger models.
