Your BW treatment is really very good, Zig. I love the dramatic sky and the composition with the two bystanders.

The square crop and low POV are perfect, but it's the two bystanders, and how they're slightly below the crest, that makes the shot unique. You must be running out of wall space.

I agree. The crop works well with this image. Great conversion as always Zig.

Sit, stay, ok, hold it! Awww, no drooling! :O

Mate, this is definitely one of the keepers. I love the dramatic b/w tones, the clouds, composition and the figures. The parachute and parachutist are also perfectly captured in the right moment too.

I think the two bystanders add a bit of interest... but I'd like to see a version with them cloned out - I think it would give an even stronger focus to the already superb elements in the picture.
