These shots are really improving....
One is nice, but the spotter really disctracts from it.
(i don't understand his purpose, if she falls from that height, he is getting squashed)
Nice composition though.
2,6,7,8 & 9 are shot compositions I like with one hand in the extreme corner of the image.
Too bad you can't ask the spotters to jump out of frame for a split second to make a cool image.
In 9 you could clone that mat out of there very easily and it would really make that image better.
Overall these are really good and getting better.
Have you used the camera on a stick yet?

Love the head down shots of 2, 6, 8 and 9. Personally would PS the mats and handlers out. #10 I really like for perspective...gives me a whoa...that's cool feeling.

Wish I had a talent for climbing tall things. Well I did have this tall gf once...

How you doin'?

I really am getting tired of your pictures. I just want to sit on my fat ass eating my bag of fat soaked potato chips without looking at people like you who are in shape. Is that to much to ask?

This is an important series: you're the only one who can really capture what's going on, and your succes should produce some spectacular shots. Be encouraged: you have a photographic niche.
