pop

For this week's get-pushed challenge Walks @7 challenged me to "get wet and explore water more." I have always wanted to do this water balloon pop but never had a reason to actually try it. With temperatures finally peeking above freezing and bright sunshine I ventured outside to have a go. I really wanted the dart to come flying in, but timing that was impossible. I popped two balloons and lost two darts in the snow. So, had to go with a poke with the last remaining dart. I did use continuous shoot, but with the settings I was using the camera would only shoot 3 in a row, so this was "1-2-3--GO!" Oh yes ... looks pretty good on black if you have a moment.
@joysabin My second attempt at the challenge. I have always wanted to try this. Found it to be very addictive! Thank goodness it's winter or I might have spent the whole day popping water balloons.
