Full Version: Can you get this shot?

-me-
So I had an idea for a cool shot (if someone has done it already- forgive me, I may have seen it before- but I don't think so).

I couldn't wait to shoot it and post, because I knew it would be a hit with the couple. I wanted to go into I-Tunes and rename a song and album after my couple, then shoot a pic of them holding the ipod in the foreground, jamming to the tune of ....well, them.

I don't know if it was the Wild Rocker that I had holding the I-pod, or just a common occurance, but he couldn't hold the thing still. By the time I got focused, he would move, ha ha. I could have had him set his hand on something to steady it- but I'm just not that bright when I'm shooting in the moment. I haven't tried the shot with anyone else, so I don't know if it was a shakey subject- or if it's a common problem.

So here's the challenge- take your best shot at doing this, without using anything to steady the couples hand (at least not for the challenge)- see if you can get the shot! Have fun. Oh, if you can't get it, please find something to steady their hand on so you can give your couple a killer shot!

Put the name of the couple on the I-pod, or come up with something fun and crazy- this will be fun. Can't wait to see what you come up with!


my lame attempt:

Cool idea Mark!

here's another one from the set- you can actually read the i-pod.

Cool idea Mark! From the other shots of this couple on your blog they really suited the ipod idea.
