A parachutist depicted against the Sun in an unusual project
Astrophotographer Andrew McCarthy presented his unusual photo project titled "The Fall of Icarus." This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Within this project, a parachutist was depicted against the Sun. According to the photographer, several weeks of planning were carried out to create this shot.

Additionally, it took six attempts to position the airplane correctly relative to the Sun. Blogger and musician Gabriel S.

Brown participated as the model for this project. He jumped from a height of 1070 meters, approximately two and a half kilometers away from the photographer.

Andrew McCarthy emphasized the complexity of this work, stating: "We had a very narrow field of view, so we had to try several times. We only had one chance to jump because resetting the parachute safely would have taken too much time." This project combined astrophotography and parachuting, showcasing an unusual and remarkable result.
