This is going to be an interesting class

So I had an assignment this week where I had to either as a girl to jump on a bed and eat a sandwich or throw some fast food around. Since I didn't feel comfortable asking any of my friends to do such an awkward favor I decided to do the latter (I did ask one friend... but the timing didn't work out)

After thinking about what food to throw around I decided that the most interesting part about throwing food is the impact. If you just take a fast shutter speed of food in air it just looks like it's levitating, but smashing it on the ground makes it much more exciting.

I decided to throw an ice cream cone because (how I imagined it in my mind) it would break apart on impact. The results weren't as impressive as they were depressive. 


I had to drop it twice because my 5dm2 shoots at only 3.9 fps and I completely missed it the first time. 

I wasn't really happy with the first or second attempt, and I had enough money to buy another cone, but I decided to eat that one instead.


I had to go to 4 mcdonalds to get this shot because 3 of them had broken ice cream machines...
