A Brief History on the Art of Camera Tossing
The story goes that one day an utterly bored photographer, who had absolutely nothing to do, was handling his camera like so, flipping and tossing it lightly in his hand, and then out of the blue he thought of setting it on long exposure and tossed it high into the air just before the shutter went off.
In that eternal moment when his camera was high up in the air, he was filled with remorse. “Oh my poor camera, hurtling in space like an aimless ship! Please come back to my hand safely and I promise never to do that again,� said he.
Fortunately he caught the camera on its way down and it did not break into pieces. Then he looked at the LCD, and admired the image that the camera took on its own.
“My, what a lovely work of art,� said he. He stopped for a moment and pondered his eureka moment. Then he did it again. And again.
And thus was born the art of camera tossing.
