Flash of Levitate by joysabin

Flash of Levitate

I brought my re-bounder (aka mini trampoline) out for some fun. I wanted to wait until no one else was around so I waited until another photographer who was taking a very long exposure of the peaks packed up his tripod and camera. I had the place to myself so I could be completely strange and childish.

This week's POM 2019 challenge (Pictures of myself - https://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/32561/52-portraits-of-me-2019) was levitate.

Also this is the 1st day of Flash of Red February (FORF) - seeing the light. Unsure if this really qualifies but I love bouncing, it just is silly fun and makes me feel good., so there!
What a great place to have fun, love it.

Nice capture and timing.

Why didn't you take Riley along? :-))

Good for you! Great shot and looks like you're having so much fun. Nice background you've got there.

This made me smile, fantastic to have that background to bounce to!

Really works well in black and white.

@tstb13 You are so very kind, truly appreciate the fav. I really waited until the other photographer left so I wouldn't have to explain myself.

@dfarrington Thank you so much, this is on the east side of town and the peaks. A great place to watch stars.

@henrir Thank you, I used my timer thingy and set it for 20 shots @5 second intervals so I could then run and start bouncing. Lots of silly fun.

@octogenarian I did think about it but wasn't sure how she'd react to me bouncing. We are still working on some of the basic things, like sit and stay until I say it's okay. I do thank you so kindly for the fav.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond General silliness is so necessary at times, okay lots of times.

@jernst1779 Thank you so much. I did try to clone out the trampoline but it just looked like I was standing on the grass so I left it in. Glad I did,

@overalvandaan I'm never going to grow up, old yes, up, no. Smiles are important, especially in winter.

@rjb71 Thank you very much. Sanity is way over-rated.

@dorsethelen Truly grateful for the fav. I had fun once I had the meadow to myself, I like being silly but not in front of a crowd.

@gardencat Thank you so much. I have to remember to set my cameras to monotone mode for the month.

Love this happy shot, the b&w works well and you're clearly having a ball. Growing old is compulsory, growing up is optional.

@golftragic Becoming an adult is most definitely a process and silliness must be a huge part of it. Truly appreciate the fav.

@joysabin we’re on the same page, Joy.

Great selfie. Lovely time and place.
February 2nd, 2019  
Super cool!
February 2nd, 2019  
What a great idea, no Photoshop involved!
February 2nd, 2019  
I think it's a fabulous image! What a beautiful spot you've chosen.
February 3rd, 2019  
Wow beautiful scenery and almost a comical shot to have a mini trampoline in the middle of it! Love it :)

@haskar Thank you so much.

@domenicododaro Being silly helps since normal is sooo boring....

@fbailey My cloning skills are sub-par too. I am glad that the trampoline fit in the car.

@bella_ss Thank you a great deal. The areas outside of Flagstaff are truly amazing.

@kmwilliams I had fun and I knew that I had to wait to be alone for this, I would have been beet red if someone was watching me do this.
February 4th, 2019  
Of course it qualifies... and it tells us a lot about yourself! Wonderfully original portrait of you having fun! Fav!
February 5th, 2019  
i bet that felt liberating, love it

@yrhenwr You are so kind, the fav is greatly appreciated. Insanity is much more fun than normality anyway.

@kali66 So very appreciative of the fav. I love to bounce. I've always had a rebel streak, try to keep it under wraps but sometimes it just bursts out....
