I have to start by saying I really don't like this shot. I'm not pleased with the background and I think it could have been better focused but I spent an hour of my life trying to get it so I decided to post it anyhow. I must have done 100 FULL push ups in the process and my arms feel like jello now so at least something good came of it!
Haha, reminds me of a levitation shot I was trying to get. How... many... times... must I jump off this friggin deck? I gave up; awesome you kept going; and I quite like the shot!
A. You are much fitter as a result!
B. It''s a great shot and stop beating yourself up about it.
C. Isn't it interesting what we do for 365? What is that about, I wonder???
ometimes the stories behind the shots are more interesting than the shot itself (lol). Love that you suffer for your art and hope your arms aren't too sore to hold a camera tomorrow!
Awesome form on that push-up! The things we do for 365, this reminds me of my planking shot - hope your arms are ok tomorrow but you will also feel it in your legs form all the ups and downs to check and refocus etc. I like the composition and angle.
@skipt07 I TRY to do 20 push ups in the morning and 20 before bed. I used to workout quite a bit but haven't had the time recently. I'm determined to get back into it. I thought I'd try a selfie at the same time. It was WAY harder than I thought it would be!!
First of all, I love the focus and the pov! And I'm impressed by your tenacity to keep going for that "one more shot!" I will stand out in the freezing cold of winter for two hours for "one" more photo. And then I delete all 200 photos. I'm glad that you didn't delete yours!! I know exactly how you feel and I love your selfie. It's a winner. :) I figure that my arms get a pretty good workout when I walk around for a few hours a day just carrying my heavy camera and lens.
Yes. The pov here is great! I love your B&W, too. And the problem of choosing the better shot from tenths of similar ones is also stands before me. Well done, KWind! And the focus here is all correct as it shows the strength of the arm!
I love this because it's original! You don't see it on 365 everyday ;-). I also love your persistence and commitment to fitness! My next 365 should be a workout project. ;-)
YEAH BABY!!! You GO!!! I love this! As a fellow "boy pushup" girl, this shot really makes me smile. I can only imagine how hard it was to get the shot too. Doing just a regular selfie is such a struggle, but doing one in full pushup mode. Now that's badass. :)

The outcome is really cool, love your comp and crop!
