how do you edit the photo like that

lukegriffiths (Jan 6, 2011 at 14:17)

Not being funny, but I don't think its edited the way you think it is, Its a setting on the camera.

+ 1

destructide (Jan 6, 2011 at 15:46)

what is the setting

+ 3

liamjumper (Jan 6, 2011 at 16:26)

my camera has a burst shooting but it doesnt add them all in one picture. I think its edited because if it were just a camera setting the hellicopter would have a sequence as well.

+ 1

praetor (Jan 7, 2011 at 4:45)

Put the camera on a tripod and shoot in burst mode. Then shoot the jump. This has 9 shots total. In editing open all the photos from the series and just start cutting and pasting. Use the first shot as a base and cut out the rider in subsequent shots and paste him to the first where he belongs. You don't have to cut him really close becasue the camera is not moving and the background is the same.
