Wow... I really did not expect this to ribbon with the scores it started with! Gradually creeping up from an initial six through to around 6.7 for most of the week. Thank you!
This was a rushed idea. I had planned for days to shoot the concept with a red balloon, but found that helium is expensive and you need a whole tank of the stuff, so we settled on throwing a balloon out the window.
When it came to the last minute shoot day, I discovered the balloons I was certain I had were for making balloon animals and not the floaty type (don't ask)
A quick burst of inspiration and we were punting an umbrella out the window, off the deck, whatever we could do to try and get the shot. I'm sure many married DPCers will understand that having your partner involved in such a rushed attempt at getting a shot is not always so fun :D
After nearly being hit in the face/camera a few times by a flying umbrella, and losing it a few times to next door's yard, I eventually figured I had something and could stop.
My favourite shot - a landscape - needed to be rotated and it bugged me that the light was coming from underneath and I figured that would get picked up on. So this was my second choice but I think now I actually prefer it! The sun is actually at the side, the shot is landscape and flipped to give the impression of falling that was needed.
