Great shot Mark:)

Cheers guys, thanks for the encouragement ; )

Woohoo!....Great shot Mark

Cheers Panteli

This is too sensational for words Mark – Wonderful capture!

Thanks Paul. It is one of those shots that you look at and say to yourself “wow…I took that!”

and again… everyting about it is beautiful. As you mention above, one of those captures that make photography all worth it! awsum shot my friend!

Excellent shot!

What an amazing capture!

I saw this as I tuned in, started laughing and said ‘great shot’...that deserves a comment, great reaction, fantastic photo…. :)

Perfect. Favourite it be.

Love it!

Fantastic shot, so many elements my eye is drawn to.

Look out belllllooooowwwwww!! This is a fantastic shot Mark. And yeah huge honour getting a gig in the Linden show. That attracts thousands and thousands of entries. Well deserved. Great piece.

Fantastic!

Well captured moment! Your timing is perfect!

Hey, I saw this at the postcard exhibition, great work getting in!, really good shot.

Wow

Such an amazing capture!!!

Wow, this picture is fun of life! Very well done!

Amazing photo; surreal

awesome sense of suspension, its like they’re stuck in the air as life goes on..

very cool shot and timing are perfect,well done

Great work, really cool stuff :)

well done. rare to find an image to admire.

This is so close to my heart, you wouldn’t believe. This reminds me when i was a kid, i use to visit an open air pool with dive stages like this. I had so much fun and it played a large part in my childhood. Sadly it’s no more, it’s been filled in!!!!!! Anyway getting back to your shot, this is great shot because you’ve got three divers off the boards doing obviously different dives, loads of divers chomping at the bit to dive. And you got a great foreground of a bather dripping wet…....absolutely stonking. Love it!

love this action shot….so many brilliant details!

fantastic shot!

Great shot!!! Really very good!!

Great timing, the difference in scale and perspective from the foreground to the background is amazing.

I wish I could find myself in Geneva :) Brilliant, brilliant photo!

Great shot. I’m amazed there were that many airborne at once. I can see why you had such success with this shot. I’ve never been to Geneva but this isn’t a shot I would have thought you would get there!

Great capture! Really awesome shot

What amazing timing!

Wow!

Cool shot—Awesome!

great retro feel to it

The lad in the foreground makes this image work – and he is not looking at the camera.

nice shot

Wonderful work!

wow – what dynamic did you catch there ;-)) the cut ist perfect !!

Thought this was a manip on first look. What a surprising capture, great art!

amazing…

I thought this was a manip as well, stunningly good. And well deserved as a winner.

A great moment in time captured here… Ahhh summer… can’t wait!

Wonderful moment

Cheers to those bubblers who recently purchased product featuring this image. Thankyou very much!

i love the mood…so fun great shot!

what an exceptional capture. good fortune to be there at that time and obviously a very good photographer pressed the magic button.

great one!

I remember seeing this in the Linden show but have only just realised why it works so well — it’s the contrast between the cool, modernist lines of the high-dive, the silhouetted figures in repose and the contemplative man in the foreground vs the wild, exuberant bods in mid-air that makes this pic so funny and charming!

Thankyou groovergreen. I appreciate you taking the time to analyse the shot and comment. Thanks for the feedback!

This is a fabulous capture, and very deserving, congratulations!!!

Thankyou very much Mel. Cheers!

wow what a spectacular image. well done.

fabulous. amazing image such fun

awesome capture this is fantastic

Awsome shot!

Awesome with a lot of tension. Great pic.

That’s amazing you caught all of them in the air like that. They look like a bunch of dolls flopping over the side! Great shot!

Fantastic shot and very well captured – just amazing to see three people so impossibly well captured in midair, with more people still preparing to join them. I also like the figure in the foreground, his positioning connects him directly to the action going on behind him

Awesome

What a shot, looks like a lot of fun, congrats

fantastic capture!

this is great!

what a capture…how perfect is the composition. you’ve done very well!

Great capture.

Beautifully captured!

Wow, congratulations, Mark, this is an amazing capture….a moment in time!

That is insane… but soooo very cool. Wonderful shot!

perfect composition and an amazing action shot – a rare combination.

love this pic,

Wow, this shot just feels completely alive. It’s also very inspiring. Awesome, awesome work.

What could I possibly add to what has already been said? Awesome capture!

great capture, really fantastic

Super work. Lot of feeling.

This is an awesome shot, and given the amount of comments, I’m not the only one to think so

This is so fun, and an outstanding moment Mark! I am Swiss and have been to Geneva many times, but it would not have occurred to me to check this spot!

fabulous shot !

Wow, they do look a bit crazy, especially the guy upside down. Fantastic timing, brilliant shot, well done. and congratulations on your award.

It seems like they’re going to kill themselves & that they’re pushed into the airs by a invisible force. Great timing and composition. Congrats for the award Mark.

Amazing shot! It would be cool to see another version without the context of the platform. But anyway… nice work!

Yeah. I like these kind of shots. I have something similar. But with old people and they don’t dive. But the atmosphere is the same.

great capture!

this is so crazy!!! lol love it

Fantastic capture the foreground subject makes the picture.

Not surprising it got awarded. Makes you wanna go out and do crazy things!

This is very cool … great capture well done.

great action!

I signed up yesterday and this is the first image that really caught my eye. A very worthy winner – don’t know how I missed it in the exhib last year. (Coincidentally, Linden have been using my image to promote this years exhib.)

Some people DO have interesting lives! Just found yourself in Geneva eh!? Like the capture. Did something similar with slides I took at the Bourke municipal pool, in 1968. Unfortunately, not so many of them jumping at the one time. Well done!
