If you see it, you'll shit bricks!

You see it’s a Fisheye. Perhaps you notice the red circle, which means I used a Fisheye No 2 Rip Curl Special Edition.
Obviously I’ve gone snowboarding. The girl in the picture is a good friend. I wanted to take some picture when to others jumped. Because flying they always look awesome, especially when shot with a Fisheye!
You see my mitten in the picture. It looks like I was pushing my friend MJ through the air with my mitten!
Cool shot, forget about it.

But after getting the strange feeling something was not right I kept looking at it….. and then I realized!
That’s my right-hand mitten! And I shoot with my right hand! So my hand isn’t in the mitten!

What happened was I took off my mittens but they hang to an elastic band from my wrists. As MJ came swooping by I had to follow her movement. In that movement I apparently threw my mitten in front of the lens. If you look very carefully you can see in my shadow that my mitten isn’t “one” with my coat.

I couldn’t have faked it if I tried! Now that’s what I call a Happy Little Accident!
