A video Daily Boydling, shot May 3, 2008.
This is a strange little video, I admit, but let it grow on you. It was shot with my Samsung cell phone (hence the poor resolution, low frame rate, crappy sound, and short duration — sigh), but it caught Lucy at a moment when there wasn’t time to run for the fancy camera. It’s a 1.1 MB download and runs 0’14”.
Although it may look as if it’s shot in slow motion, it isn’t. The pink balloon had lost a lot of helium overnight, and it was very nearly balanced — its weight just barely exceeding its buoyancy. So if Lucy gave it the slightest touch, it would loft lazily up before lazily drifting down again.

Precious! Those almost gone helium balloons provide so much fun!
So fun! You are capturing those lovely innocent child-hood moments! (And capturing my heart with them! ;) cheese!) I love it!
