When doing this type of photography, smiling is NOT an option. *g

I didn't smile because I was focused on making the video and forgot to think about being the "model" (I was thinking about camera settings, placing tripods, etc)

Fotizmo, OK, we'll let it slide this time. I might have seen some smiling photos if you somewhere.... I'll have to digg around and find them!

@someguy9: That's the point. I posted this (along with the video) to show people that you CAN do this anywhere.

Now, I think you've got your hands full.. You need to copy and paste that snarky comment into a few million sunset, flower, portrait, etc photos. Good luck!

Very cool. I like the contrast between the apparent motion and his frozen expression.
