I have some time off so I am home for a bit. I also decided to go through some old shots.
"The Joy of Car Ownership"
I caught this guy leaving the auto show just as I was leaving. He saw me take photos of him and he must have been happy about how much attention I was giving him. It is a very pretty Alfa. I really like his smile.
The wife is training for a job that takes her out of down during the week for the next six months. Saturday mornings are the biggest treat of the week just having her here at home. The light came out for her return.
@rbrylawski Thank you This is one bridge that I never knew where to photograph other than from afar. So I went on an adventure and found this spot. Still a lot to explore for another day though.
Nikon D7100; AF-S DX 35mm f1.8; AF-S DX Macro 40mm f2.8; AF-S DX 18-200mm VRII; SB-700 Speed Light and a bunch of other not very noteworthy stuff......
I had no idea that a little over 8 years ago when I photographed Andrew McCutchen the night the school retired his jersey that he would be one of baseball's MVP players. What people don't generally know that is he excelled in the classroom also.
Had my D4 in shutter priority mode and fired of 3 shots at this winner's presentation. None was usable, because of the flames. Was lucky to be able to change to manual and the appropriate settings fast enough to catch the moment. It is a good exercise to practice changing your camera settings in the dark. Jürgen
