The best thing I’ve ever done. It really free and un-restrictive.
I worked on film set last year and it all good fun, but still as boring as hell. The first day I had to make sure a light didn’t fall over for 2 hours while someone went to get some sandbags to hold it down.
Technically I wasn’t flying, my cousin was, but it was terrifying! You’re a mile above the ground in something the size of a hatch-back shaking up and down ever now and then, then banking at 60 degrees and not knowing where the horizon is. It wasn’t my idea of fun but it did have some great views.
I wrote and published a book called One Hundred Haiku in a week and put it on Lulu.com. Buy it now!!!
Get a good camera, like the Fuji FInepix S9600
...and it;s great. If you shoot it right and edit it well you end up really chuffed with your self!
