It's ok mum, just don't move...#3

"It will look really good to get a shot of me cycling over this dip towards you so just get low down, keep completely still and I'll aim to the side, near your hand holding the camera. My friend thinks you're really cool doing this - he says his mum would run a mile from a bmx and a muddy hole"
AAAARGH!!!!

I must admit, this project is not only helping me to see something appealing every day, it's also giving me opportunities to have more fun with my children - they are growing up so fast... BTW it's shadow on the shirt, not mud... not yet!

Thank you, thank you - all you gargoyle lovers who took the time to comment on my squiffy collage yesterday... you're all too kind as well as hugely talented! :)
Wow, stunning "motion" shoot!

You're becoming quite an action photographer. I've heard absailing is supposed to be fun and provide lots of photo ops... ;-)

Another excellent capture and the camera settings must have been perfect. If I get down low it takes all day to get back up again :-)

@woot Woo! Thank you for telling me, Davide - I've been out all day and would almost certainly have missed it! George is really pleased and has told his friends to come and have a look! Grazie! :)
February 25th, 2012  
i love that son of yours!!
February 25th, 2012  
wonderful action shot! I love hearing how your kids are involved with your photography, it's so nice! My youngest is 20 and away at school. He often puts my pictures as his computer wallpaper and shows them to his friends - that's about as big a compliments as one can get when your child is proud of you!!

Excellent action shot Phil, caught at just the right moment.
