It's like shooting on LSD…

That is, if I ran while tripping. I trip while running, but that's not the same thing. I used to do this a lot back in Michigan, take photos while running. I would get some really neat effects, depending on the light, the season, how hard I was jogging. The thing is, when I'm running, I don't like to stop, because it's so hard to start running again. And it's really hard to run and then stop and take a photo without shaking. So then I thought, why bother stopping at all? So this is the result. I maxed out the saturation in iPhoto, but the rest of it is just pure random magic. If you click on one of the pictures, you'll see a larger image. I think they look like paintings.













This last one, I like especially because it's a shot of the woods where a prescribed burn was done a few weeks ago, but it just looks so beautiful there now. All the pine needles have fallen to the ground so it's carpeted in orange and brown and yellow and a lot of the shrubbery is burnt red. Really cool looking. Hot, I mean. Hot looking.
