Vrischikasana : The camera LIES





It's lies I tell you, I was there and I know my feet were just inches, centimeters, millimeters even from my head. I was bent double, a paperclip, the ubiquitous Ashtanga pretzel and yet this is what I see on the camera afterwards, miles away. Cheap digital cameras, should have bought an SLR.

It could have been worse. Taking pictures of my asanas might destroy the Camera.

Was really excited about this one felt like I had a really deep backbend going but miles away. Still, it's good to see a couple of pictures over time and see the progress, find it encouraging. thanks for stopping by.

Hahaha... I hate when that happens. Try letting your knees go wider.

Word veri: CALOR. That is heat in Spanish. Tapas!!

Yesterday my teacher tried to make us to do vrischikasana. Unfortunately he was the only person who succeded. ;) But I find the entry through sirsasana intresting and maybe, maybe in a couple of days I'll do it.
Greetings from Poland - it's nice to see how your blog is changing, progressing (not only your photos of asanas ;)); is this only my impression or you are more and more influanced by pranayama?

itm, just found your comment in my awaiting moderation box for some reason. had forgotten about this post, what was I thinking trying this four years ago.

Entry through sirsasana interesting, will try it. thanks re kind words about blog.

Think I missed your comment altogether Susan. knees wider, Ok will try that tomorrow, only tend to do second twice a week these days ( I fit my Vrischi in after pincha). NICE, just noticed your doing it in your mini pic. Deepest I ever got in this was toenails to hair....and I hadn't cut them for months.
