The Anatomy of a Perfect Jump Shot

G is certainly new to this, while the rest of us, having had the exposure and enough dose of kakikayan, jump like a pro. The perfect jump shot is that one shot when everyone is just at the same height above ground, with the right space in between one person to the other so as not to cover any significant portion of the other person, thus striking a balance, with smiles on their faces, knees bent, and a required minimum height above ground, plus a perfect coverage of the skyline. This series of shots at La Luz amused us more than anything (ok, maybe tong-its amused us more), and gave us enough laugh for a month. G stands for gracious, for allowing us to teach her how to pose, and yes, taking off that sarong of hers, to be more in sync with the rest of us.
