When I see the price of Diesel fuel, especially the totally unjustified difference to gasoline, I jump too! (The cost of refining Diesel is about 30 cents less per gallon)
Nevertheless, this is a great action shot, Kanyi!

What a great action shot. It has such clarity and it looks like he is ten feet in the air. Great angle.

@tyan: Thanks! Yes, it was a real jump. I just had to shoot him from a low angle to achieve this effect.
@Lorena: Thank you very much. No, it is not DHR, i got the effect after playing around with lightroom.

baobab from Cambridge, United States
this shot has great energy - love his hair, his hands, the ripped knees and the fact that he's cleared the sign. the clouds and colour treatment (vignetting) add drama too. great work :)

Sarala from Chicago, United States
Very cool. The gas prices make me wonder what he has to jump about.

@Sarala: LOL! I hope it will make you feel better if you knew that he was jumping off a cliff in protest.
pedro alexandre from loures, Portugal
