the only thing I can say is this is very cool. I have been wanting to play with putting the same person in an image several times just haven't had the time. Again this is awesome I bet this person would love to have this image.

Well done Jeff. Isn't new camera technology great?

Thanks, Rita and Dale.

Not sure what new technology you are referring to, Dale. I built the composite in CS5.

Very cool Jeff! Obviously it is a composite, yet it is not obvious at all in your editing :) Well done!!

I was talking about the rapid exposures needed for the sequence Jeff.

Yeah, nothing like churning out 22mb files at 6 frames per second :o)

By the way, I actually had 15-16 images in the sequence, but only used 11 to make the composite.

Thanks, Deb and Carla!

Wow-I was going to comment how each image of the diver is really perfectly spaced with respect to the images before and after. And as he approaches the bottom there is more space. I like it a lot!

Thanks, ladies!

Debbie - I'l take a look and see how big the file ended up, but I don't think it will be too big. For each layer, I selected the diver with enough of the wires and flags that I could position him on the background layer. Once he was in place, I masked out what I didn't need. So, each layer was only a small piece, not an entire image. Not sure if that made sense or not. . .
