One of my all-time favorite photographers on flickr is Jack Scoresby. So when we proposed the copycat challenge for the 365 Days podcast, I knew that I’d probably pick one of his. Thinking about it last night, I decided to try my hand at one of my all time favorite shots of his.
I think he did a better job than I did. I should have shot from above like he did. The angle is more dynamic.
Since I managed to survive, I guess I could go back outside and shoot it again. But really, it kinda smarts, and I’d rather not.
Jack’s version:
Sweet!
Very cool! But you know it only hurts when you hit the pavement, other than that it should be pretty painless! Looks like you cracked the street when you landed!

Seen in my contacts’ photos. (?)
@Mikey aka DaSkinnyBlackMan: thanks.
@lrayholly: yeah. Our street kinda sucks. And If I knew how to fall into the middle of the street without hitting the pavement, I totally would.
u gotta move out the hood to pull this shot off….lol….suburbs have nice paved streets
@VAN JOHNSON PHOTOGRAPHY: it’s not worth living in the suburbs for one shot.
Wow, I did mine inside! Didn’t even know others could fly!
How many takes?
I’m surprised you didn’t roll all the way down the hill….
@VAN JOHNSON PHOTOGRAPHY: I beg to differ. Reporting from Trafford, PA.
Ouch! I hope you practiced over grass, sand, cotton balls….
haha that is cool, nice copy Mav
@thehalfshow.com: well, I’m hardly flying… 🙂
@DeHoll: too many. Not sure exactly.
@emilydrew: heh. I was careful.
@drquuxum: well, yeah… there’s that too.
@musik48190: nope.
@disco~stu: thanks.

@Jack Scoresby: Awww… you still can’t have my models.

@ mav
Damn!
Getting the lighting is tricky but i think you’ve done a fantastic job. really like the impact crater.
That’s a cool shot! I love the impact crater as well!
Woah! You chose a perfect spot!
@Y3MBailey and @wnelweb: thanks. But its not really a creater. My street is just really cracked,
@labspics: heh… Thak you.
