Converses With Self
...Im not entirely sure why, but I went through a phase of throwing things up in the air and trying to photo them and the shadows they cast against different textured walls…It was kind of fun. I got hit on the head a few times and ruined a few umbrellas… but I really enjoyed the exploration of it..
This photo is one i like because of the sign inclusion…. I love signs :)

How many times did you toss the shoes before capturing this great image?
Melody

Thank you, Mr Pilgrim:)

hehe i like this idea so much, it would be cool to throw a few things at once… you need some throwing assistants! love the signs also
