Levitation photo, what is that..?? This is a photography technique that make it seem as if the fly without any assistance and editing. Unlike the jump. Because the levitation picture is a flat expression is indispensable. Do not let the facial expressions look forced and certainly the man must seen floating leisurely. I was inspired from a Japanese girl Natsumi who like to make the levitation photo, and you can see the picture of natsumi in her blog or web, this one http://yowayowacamera.com/ and

How To Make Levitation Photo.
1. Before the start of levitation should be tightened clothes first so do not float when the jump could use a safety pin, and long hair must be in a strong hairspray or pigtails the hair. so photos look unique, use a book, umbrella or goods that look . It is as if the person is doing something with the fly.
2. I give example someone who bring the bottle. So you must taking the preparation as relaxed as possible, do not use emotion, clear your mind and relax, look forward. Remember, we are not jumping at random, but we do a refusal relax. Feel that we are going to fly off with easy. And do not imagine that you will fall after the jump. because surely you can keep from falling, and it will be a reflex from yourself. So you must imagine relax relax and relax first.

3. Then throw your body into the air with ease and the most common facial expressions or expressions are flat. Do not jump with emotion because it affects the expression when you jump. Jump with legs bent 90 degrees or 75 degrees. Use the freeze technique when shooting. use high speed, or can be continuous shooting and the proper focus. Use a camera angle where the object can look really fly.
4.After the jump, use a strong landing to keep from falling. Do not play levitation in a slippery place. because it can fail and drop landings
