Those who are not afraid of breaking their beloved camera should consider trying the camera tossing technique. It's very simple: just throw your camera!
Some artists use this technique to draw pattern in space using single light source. This is a clear exemple of why physics can be (sometimes) beautiful ....
JPG Magazine (a great community-driven photo website and paper magazine you should visit just right now if you don't know it yet!) has an article about camera tossing in its sixth issue. So, don't be afraid, be hip, play a role in the next vanguard, toss your camera!
If you need further information, you can find hereafter some links to the camera toss world:
- Camera Toss: The Blog
- Physiograms, close relatives to camera toss pictures
- Kinetic Photography, Ryan Gallagher's website - on the forefront of camera toss craze.

I like the look on their faces, it represents what I felt about Romania : when I was there, it seemed to me it was a country waiting something to begin a new life... let's hope Europe will bring them what they are waiting for.
It takes me a while to post a picture on this blog but it's all Photoshop's fault!
I fight with the script function to built a small plug-in that allow me to create a contact sheet the way I want.
Not very difficult but it can be very tricky when you're not an expert in JavaScript for PS!!! If anyone need some help on scripting or if you wonder what plug-in you really need to get top-notch pictures, ask me, I might be able to help you!
Anyway, last but not least, I post this serie of pictures taken during my stay in the US. A work on time-shifts and memories.
I took them with my old digital cam from Hoboken, New Jersey, right across Manhattan island. I usually took them on my way to or back from my work.

It seems that someone has to be the first to post here, so let's start with a basical photo. I take a lot of buildings or ruins photos, so I guess you'll see more of these in a few days.
This one was taken last summer at Fes, Maroco.
I'll be waiting for your comments and for your own shots as soon as posible.
PS. The photo was taken in Saint Germain-en-laye at a bungee jumping festival.
