This little penguin is one of a collection of little toys known affectionately around here as "the boingers". After a long night with an ailing child, I didn't have much energy this afternoon, so I sat by the window and tried like crazy to catch him in flight. It took awhile, but I did it!

that is very creative, and way too cute :)
Unreal!! I love that jumping shot!
It cracks me up to think of you sitting there making this little guy jump, over and over, trying to get your shot! (He really is a high jumper, isn't he?)
great capture! I know that took patience. :)
Lol! Well done! I am impressed with your persistence. This is so cute!
Thanks everyone! In the end, my family got in on the action. It was pretty funny. Trying to "set" him so he would go off quickly was the challenge. I used my continuous shoot, and took more photos than I would care to admit! This one, amazingly, was caught right at the top.
After that the project deteriorated into a launch fest with a ruler and marker, but the pictures were all just a blur.
Great catch. And don't worry, you're not alone ~ I've spent more time than I'd care to mention on situations like this. Why, just the other day I spent about 30 minutes trying to catch the motion of the bright lights on my daughter's new tennis shoes.
