I (my flickr page) created this interest group after doing quite a bit of throwing my camera and enjoying the process and results. Essentially, I thought others might enjoy doing it or looking at the results so I shared them as I went. It also embodied some very core ideas about art that I find facinating. How it went from there to getting linked everywhere, having a blog that at times attracts thousands of visitors a day, getting covered by the printed media, and needing this Mini-HOWTO is another story. If you are curious here is a good theory on such things. Regardless of everyone's individual reasons for viewing or participating, it apparently had all the right ingredients to capture imagination and continue spreading."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/40019957_c5150ebcc9.jpg" /><br /><br />Umm, ok then! While the pictures are awesome, almost like fractals, but I don't know if I am brave enough to toss around a $1K+ camera and lens around. The part of the article that says "Thin line between landing and CRASHING" is clearly the part to read first. :)
