Spraynpray, I appreciate your comments on my street photo in the previous month. I was going to respond, but was busy with my tribute.

I agree with what you say. The photo was completely candid, so I could not do anything about the background. I also agree that it would have been better at 2.8 than 4.0. However, I only shoot at 2.8 when I have a single subject or have the ability to line everyone up in the plane of focus, which is hard with a candid shot.

Note the following image:



So this was not candid. They posed that way, but the background sucked, so I maneuverer them to a better background. Alas, I shot at 2.8 instead of 4.0 and he is a bit soft. Thus my general rule above.

Drivers view from the grape picker...

If you check out the bottom rear view mirror you might spot yours truly behind the lens (hanging on for dear life to the ladder up to the cab - only room for one in there!!!!).

Hey GPDen...that is really hanging around for a good picture. Nice picture.



Father and Son celebrating a triple. Our grand son hit the ball 190 feet driving in 2 runs. The distant to the fence was 200 ft. Dad is the head coach and always coaches 3rd.

Another sunset in the vineyard........a lot of shadow recovery on this one but I think it works okay (well for me anyway)...

Photobug....thanks for the nice comment...it was very noisy with the vines being rattled so vigorously by the machine but well worth the effort!! By the way, I meant to say great pic of the baseball release by your grandson...akin to me trying to get those impact shots on the golf course...not easy and many find the bin!!!!!

Our PRT (Parson Russell Terrier) 'Wilf' was one year old yesterday...

Cheers 'Wilf' but that's my beer okay!!!!

GPDen - Your welcome. Yup, your right, it's not easy getting that ball close to the hand after release. Also like the color of your PRT, especially the white on the head.

Haven't gone through all of the pics from yesterdays soccer games but I'm pretty sure this one will be my favorite.
