Photograph: Tomas Januska with a photograph from series titled Gravity. “An instantaneous state of weightlessness lasts for only a moment, which is why I wanted to capture this, driven by curiosity. I was curious to try and capture a person jumping because whatever you would have planned, whatever the outcome you would have expected, you are simply surprised by the final product. The jumping people become strangely similar to each other because they are surviving the same real emotions, as if they have returned from their childhood. On the other hand, they are completely different because in each and every one that emotion appears naturally and live, at the same time differently and in different ways. It’s like a movement in a moment, or a moment in a movement? You can decide…
Januska was born in Kretinga, Lithuania and is now living in London and working as a photographer in the UK. Find Januska on Instagram or his website.
yes, there is no disguising the wonder of the moment –
Look at her face, she really enjoys it! One second weightlessness and she’s able to relax. I wish I could do that.
Laughing. I so wish I could do that….
Can’t help it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgZjwHNcWqg

It’s true, we never know where we may land when we take a step and jump. ☝
a step or jump or wing flap…
Yes, I like the wing flap myself 🙏🏻👍
