there are a few flaws but this is definitely the most amazing picture dealing with sonshine & skateboarding that I've seen yet!
Was this at Sonshine 05?

Niiiiice work. Well done. I love it even though I'm not a giant fan of skating myself.
There are a few areas where you can see a bit of the stitching, I realize it's been forever since you made this so I know you aren;t going to edit at all, but just wanna give my two cents.
On the fourth frame his right foot is a little chopped off
On the fifth his left arm and his right foot are a little chopped off
In the fifth frame you can see some grass through his knee
In the fifth frame one of the wheels is a little chopped
In the sixth frame a spectator's leg is misaligned
In the sixth frame you can see the blending change in the road (not only where it's misaligned but if you look closely the colour too)
Seventh frame's hand should be visible behind the 8ths thigh
Eighth's hand should be visible behind ninth's thigh
Nine's foot is going through eighth's shoulder
You can see the orange shirt guy's shorts where eight's arm should be
Anyways that's only after I saw the advanced critique and I looked really closely. This picture is done amazingly well and you should be really proud.
If you manipulated the layers in photoshop or a program like it you should try out using something called a mask. What you do is apply the mask to the newer layer. Then take a paintbrush with 100% opacity black. Where you colour black the picture will disappear and show the layer behind. When you do it that way if you make a mistake you can switch to a 100% opacity white brush and it brings the picture back. You don't have to worry about your history or trying to clone in portions of other pictures.
The easiest way I can think of doing it is use the first frame as the base picture. Bring in the second layer and colour black around everything except the skater. (And obviously a lot of things aren't going to change so you don't have to be amazingly precise with the mask colouring.)
Anyway, good work, thanks for sharing it with us.

I don't have an updated version of photoshop, so I had to deal with what i had, but definitely thank you for noticing the flaws. I appreciate that.

No worries man. I'll be back to look at the rest of your gallery. If that showcases even a small portion of your talent I won't regret it.

Excellent, altough there is a mistake. A very noticable mistake if you aren't blinded by your talent for these kind of pictures. After the fourth frame of the skateboarder you can see that a spectator's leg is kind of fragmented, and there is a little hole in the middle of the skateboarder on the right of that spectator. Otherwise, flawless!

thanks. 5 frames per second for camera speed. I layered the pictures on top of each other and had to erase them single file. It took a while, so I appreciate the comment, thanks!

5 fps of him skating and I layered the pictures and very carefully erased each one, and it took freaking forever.

AAAAHH!!!!! DO YOU REALIZE HOW INSANELY AWESOME THIS IS?! Even if the alignment isn't perfect!!!!! the fall is the best! You rock Sam grace!
