waiting to fly - a photo on Flickriver

waiting to fly

I wanted to create an image that had to do with flight, and for the last half a year or so I've been wanting to do paper airplanes. I've tried several other paper cutouts but have found that I very simply lack the skill to create most things by hand. I am working on it, though.

So, here comes the paper airplanes. Issue #1 - I got to the shooting site with my paper and forgot how to make a paper airplane. Issue #2 - it rained...a lot. And my paper airplanes were a big wad of wet paper by the end. But I managed to get what I needed to finish up, and filmed a behind the scenes video to show what the day was like. Due to the rain I had to cut the video a bit short, but here it is nonetheless!

I also wrote a short blog post with some BTS pictures here: shadenproductions.com/blog/2012/09/06/shooting-waiting-to...
