Today I decided to continue with yesterday's assignment of trying something new and outside of my comfort zone - capturing an action shot. The best of the lot is both the idea of and features my SIL - a talented dancer. Thanks to her mad leaping skills I managed to capture her in motion (and with her eyes open and a smile on her face even.)
Earlier today I joined my family in a trap shooting adventure - I snapped hundreds of photos attempting to get a photo of the clay pigeon just as someone shot it. This doesn't make for very exciting or interesting photos - but it was a fun challenge and it stretched my abilities with my camera. I managed to capture several just as the clay pigeon shattered but only one in the instant the bullet hit it. I actually found trying to capture a photo of this more difficult that actually hitting one of the clay pigeons.
A pretty obvious choice for today's song, Tom Petty's "Learning to Fly." I've felt like this entire Bootcamp week has been me learning to fly - even on those days when I feel like I'm doing it without wings - and then being surprised that I can do it anyway.
