Project 52 - Emergency Landing

So my talented and most wonderful brother has embarked on a photographic (and for Ed videographic) project to create a new themed work each week and I've butted in on the project to create my own work while bending a few of their rules because I'm a complete amateur and thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it so :PPPP. Ed's submissions can be found here: http://parallax6x6.tumblr.com/  and Seb's can be found here:  http://sebastianbecher.com.au/ and um, mine can be found here obviously.

The rules are:

One week allocated to each theme (Monday to midnight Sunday) (which for me with the time difference is actually Sunday to Saturday) - no jumping ahead and working on other weeks topics before the allocated times! (and I have the list of themes) 
  • Must host final photograph/video/animation in a blog space (ie tumblr, wordpress...). - that would be here for me
  • Freedom to interpret the topic/theme - but try and stay focused on the article title to provide inspiration. If it is too tangential to the article title or requires deeper reading of the article to be understood, provide a brief synopsis/statement explaining the connection. 
  • Any photo size/dimension. Maximum of 3 photographs per topic. 
  • Up to 5mins duration for video/animation (no minimum). - that means Ed although I might be inspired... 
  • Must be all original work including original audio. 
  • Videos can exceed 5mins and have non original music if they are a music video. 
  • If due to exceptional circumstances a video/photo may be submitted by midnight the following Monday at the latest (the decision to submit on Monday must be agreed to by both parties). 
  • Small amount of stock photos/video footage may be used if personally sourced footage is not practically feasible. 
  • All photos must be accompanied by a lighting diagram.  - and that does not apply to me cuz I have no idea wtf that is lol

So herewith is my first (rushed) interpretation of Emergency Landing which is not what I had orignially intended but didn't manage to get to where I wanted to so :PPPP build a bridge. My interpretation of the theme Emergency Landing is this magnificent red kangaroo, whilst bounding his way across the plains, stubs his toe and crashes into this bush, thus requiring an emergency landing on his flight across the plains... um.. okay its a stretch but remember that bridge right hehehe. I'll try harder next week, I promise.
