Duel Camera Toss

Thanks to my buddy Kevin Swan, we met at his house for the Indianapolis Pictage Pug presentation, which is part of my 20 city Photography Tour

We could not resist throwing our cameras in the air so we gathered a few of the friends remaining and went out for a shoot. See the results below!

Here is my shot of his camera in the air. Pretty cool because two simultaneous cameras in the air has never been done before! Here is video that someone took on facebook of the event!

Next up I'll be in Detroit on thursday. See you all then, and after that I'm back in San Luis Obispo for a few days before I head up to Tahoe for a wedding on the North Shore!

and his shot of my new Canon 1D mark 4

Thanks kevin!

Camera Toss over ocean surf in Hawaii!

I had wanted to do this shot earlier, but I had forgotten, so as everyone was leaving the workshop today, we ran out and did a quick shot on the beach. We waited until the water was a little less than a foot deep and then I threw the camera up. I REALLY wanted to get the horizon line, so I did about 8 tosses. Then we got this shot! Kevin Swan one of my very good friends, who has challenged me with his competition to my original camera toss, just got a new challenge! Have a great day guys!

Camera Toss with 200+ people

OK, so this was a first for me today, at the WPPP, Philippines Photography convention, there was several hundred people there who came out to watch my camera toss. I had to have it up high enough to clear and get everyone. I think that I hit a new height. So does this count as the most people in a hand tossed shot, that we can submit to the Guinness Book of World Records?
Mr. Swan, can you top that?

Thanks guys to all the people who were part of this! Feel free to use the image to blog!

Camera Toss Over Cement?!

I normally throw my camera up over grass, but here i had no choice, and all there was, was cement. So I did what a responsible photographer could do, throw it up and just be forced to catch it! Here is the shot! My wedding party and the bride and groom last saturday expected no less!
