Shot this at 24mm, laying on my back on the hot pavement so I could incorporate the two towers behind her in the shot. I was using a Nikon D800 that only had 4fps, so I didn't bother trying to shoot multiple frames and instead just shot one frame per jump that she did, trying to hit the apex of the jump. The giveaway as to whether or not you hit it is the hair, if it's still down, or going up, you're either too early or too late, but if the hair is floaty, I know I caught it right at the top of the jump.

Shot with a Nikon D800 & 24-70mm lens
