I chose this image because it was a strong example of frozen motion in a photo. The girl in the photo seems perfectly suspended and balanced in midair. The picture's mood comes across as peaceful. The fast shutter speed obviously helped capture the frozen motion, and sunlight illuminates her front extremely well. The background is somewhat gray, so its nice that her hair and parts of her leg came out so bright, as it helps draw even more attention to the subject of the photo. I dont really like the background in this image, however. I feel like it shouldn't have been so straight-on, maybe I should have taken it from a completely different angle from the one I did.
