    Default Silly Jumping Photos

    Bored from taking regular photos, we did some silly jumping shots by using camera's burst mode.

    In order to make it looks like we jump much higher, have to bend the knees either to front or to back.




    Now it's the FLOATING pictures. It seems like you are doing something else while floating in the air. Key is, the ankle has to be at 90 degree




    Still not challenging, this is the Kung Fu kick.




    We did it so many times now that a little 3 year-old wants to join

    Look at Norman McLaren's "Neighbors" from 1952 - especially at 2:50 :

    haha, good stuff!!


    Finally logged in using a proxy: these pixs are GREAT!!!

    Yous were obviously getting very good at it, as the effect is very pronounced.


    My favourites: the two guys "free falling" down the cliff of Niagra falls, and the chocolate/candy/gelato one....the people watching are PRICELESS!!!
