Isn't it a funny old world: I happened to be not just online, but thru sitemeter happened to see someone click thru to my blog from the wonderful Photodiarist (which is where I just left the HB comment a few minutes ago). Who took the shots of you? Did you do it with a timer?<br /><br />While I can still do splits in the air, there's not like they used to be. But somewhere on my blog I've got some old shots that I took in NYC, on the roof of my apt building, in film (colour slides), with my dad's Pentax and a tripod and the timer. I'm actually going to try to find it..<br />AH! found it. Still not as good as yours ; )<br /><br />http://streetstylelondon.blogspot.com/2010/06/take-bow.html<br /><br />following you now..

That's why I am partly out of frame in the middle photo :-) I couldn't control the lighting either with the sun going in and out of the clouds.
