City Competition 5 2014 - all cities! : Entry Number 148

What a fantastic idea that was to make a visual play on the buildings in the background that look upside down by having someone stand on their heads! These buildings have appeared in several previous I SHOT IT city competitions, but your creative idea makes this photo a winner.
You put a smile on our faces. Thank you!

Ahhh, Thank you! This image is part of a portrait series of my son. The idea came spontaneously from him and we constantly evolve it. My son is someone who compensate school and everyday stress with a lot of movement. Breakdance gives him strength, self-confidence and the ability to take a certain amount of time distance to of all this. That's all matter for the head. ;) The view to the great architecture in the background is violated by the headstand, so that the image contain a constant switch between foreground and background. The further plan is to travel to more monumental buildings. I Shot It in Cologne, Germany. I used my Leica M9P with a 35mm Summicron IV.
