First Flight
by Keith T.

White Plains, NY

I realize this is technically only the illusion of motion, but I figured these challenges are pretty liberal with regard to interpretation of the rules....

Even Superman had to *learn* to fly once upon a time.

My son Jonathan is a bit of a comic and one day when I was playing with photoshop he wanted me to put him in a different scene. So we went outside and photgraphed him stretched across a rock with that classic look on his face as if to say - "What do I do now?!!!".

Keith, this is really a fun collage. Your son is certainly "flying high" here. I like how you cropped the background and placed your son high above the clouds, illuminated by a ray of light. The expression is great too. Well done. MFC

Keith, a fun composition. Kinda reminds me of the TV series 'The Greatest American Hero', do u remember that ? I reckon that it would look really good with a bit of motion blur coming in from the right, to make it look like Jonathan is really moving. David
