BD 2007 exit shots
Hey all,

I was taking stills for the most part of the day up near the exit point. I didn't get everyone, but I did get quite a few. Thought I'd share them in case I got something from an angle that others weren't able to get. Thanks for the entertainment. Enjoy.

Those are some great shots of the 8-way! Thanks for posting them and giving me a pick-me-up for fighting my post bridge day depression.

If you've got anything higher-res that you'd like to sell of the 8-way, please PM me.

The 8 way
Was importing my footage into my Mac
last night and saw I got the 8 way from
exit to landing --- just some of the good
stuff that will be in Jimmy's video.

No freefall pics after 1:40?

Not at all, or just not yet?

freefall pics after 1:40
I asked the same thing when I was
looking for the freefall shot from my
2nd jump and heard something like:

The photographer shooting those shots was
hanging from a rope under the bridge and
does not enjoy that so he quit soon as he
thought he had gotten at least one of
everyone jumping.

What sucks is - for people like me - who had not jumped this object before - and opted to do more "simple jumps" to warm up - it was not until 2:10 where I got in a cool two way that I wanted more photos of... And, at the same time the freefall guy quit, the guy doing the exit photos must have been reloading, because he missed a few people I remember before me too and our two way is only shown on the landing folder.

Good thing my friend got about 30 shots per second - which are cool, but unfortunately does not show our exit very well due to angles...

Oh well, all the more reason to come back next year. Hopefully next year the guy hanging from the rope will stay all day.Tongue

Re: [tdog] freefall pics after 1:40
I'm with ya man, I was shooting
landings till noon so I did not jump
till after that so they're no freefall
shots of my 2nd jump.

To be honest though no one but me
could tell the difference between the
2 jumps since both were flat, stable,
solos.
