Its a toss-up.

So I definitely enjoy shooting on my roof, if you haven't noticed by now.

Today I wanted to take advantage of the weather, my roof and the setting sun. So I took the 'ol Canon out for some fun! I set my shooting mode to Sport, the self-timer to shoot 10 frames in sequence and started tossing. All together I took about 300 frames or 30 sets of 10 exposures, another reason to love digital. I tossed the camera about 3 times with each round. It was so much fun, I could have shot another 300 frames but my battery said, "No."

I then loaded all the photos onto my Mac and went through, deleting a good 80%. I got a little motion sick going through all the frames so quickly during the initial edit. I then edited down even further. I didn't flip or turn any of the pictures. I left the orientation up to the camera.

Here are some of my favorites:












I absolutely LOVE the one with my shadow on the AC unit and the wall. I couldn't have planned that one if I wanted to. This is such a fun exercise. You have no control over the images. You have to let go and throw caution to the wind, literally.

And if you were wondering...no, I didn't drop my camera once!

What a great idea and perspective. These picture all turned out really great, but I agree with you that the A/C shadow one is the most interesting. Wicked cool.

Genius idea.
Independently, these pictures might not be too interesting, but as a series, they are fabulous. There is a fun, whimsical feeling. There is a giddiness when looking at the series. I love how, when the camera caught a glimpse of you, your smile was contagious.
Keep 'em coming.
