Jump photos have been a big part of my life since 2005. As an effort to evolve as a jumper/jump-photographer, I proposed to my brother (also an avid jumpologist) that we would each take a new jump photo for every single day in 2011. It seemed daunting, but we rose to the challenge and created a portfolio larger than expected. Most days it was hard to choose only one photo to be added into the 365 collection (where other days there was just no spark). Since then, I've slowed down a considerable amount but continue to explore this form of photography. Please check back regularly for gravity defying poses as I continue on my journey for jumping greatness.

Day 108

Photo by Daniel Burns, Littleton CO
I took this jump beneath the large grove of cottonwoods outside my apartment moments after I realized the flock of turkey vultures that live there had returned from wherever they went for winter. Its basically impossible to see them in this photo since my body absorbed the flash, so I left the camera in the same spot on the ground and took another shot with a slower shutter so they would show up. They're the dark blobs towards the top of the photo being hip and awesome.
