The party of the upside down part, that'd be me. I'd just been gently tossed over the gentleman's head. This is my favorite picture of me ever, as I am a big fan of action shots. The other thing I really like about this shot is what it represents to me. Taking high falls like this scared the crap out of me when I first started Aikido, but I did it anyway and it wasn't always this picturesque. Fear didn't win when it could have and has not won a round with me in years. When good sense might suggest that avoidance would have been the wiser choice. Wiser yes, more empowering choice no.
