Our three-day walk—or is that falling flat face—down fad memory lane concludes with another selection from four summers ago. You remember the craze, right? Or did you forget? (Please do.) Nate Bolt shot self-titled “Road Hat Plank” on June 7, 2011, using Canon EOS 5D Mark II and EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM lens. Vitals: f/8, ISO 100, 1/50 sec, 50mm. At that shutter speed, shooter and planker need to stay still.
Nate is one of Silicon Valley’s successful startup specialists. In May 2012, Facebook acquired part of the design research team where he was chief executive. He left the social network two years later to focus on spinoff Ethnio. He joined Flickr in June 2005 but no longer is active.
See Days 204 and 205 for more planking.
