Dave-
this is awesome! I have some continuous shots of my niece jumping on a trampoline and would love to try this...any suggestions? #193266

Thanks Murry!

Mary, actually I was not entirely pleased with this shot and only decided to post it because I got such a good reaction from my family. When I shot these I was panning with the boy being thrown. As a result you'll notice that the background is blurred in some areas and not in others. I plan to retake this shot with the camera fixed on a tripod so that all the shots have the same background and I can then composite in just the elements that have moved. That's what I would suggest for your shot if possible. #193434

Dave this is a fantastic sequence.
Don't suppose you could drop a hint or two as to how you did the merging of the piccies ?

In the first look I just thought there were two guys throwing a couple of kids into the pool.
When I opened the picture fully and 'really' looked... it was great.
