Default Re: Photography Thread

This is a crap photo focus-wise, but I liked it so much I wanted to post it. I was reading a blog post from a guy that
shoots a lot of club photos for some doofus club somewhere, and he was talking about how to avoid the common pitfalls
of posting photos. One has always made sense to me, NEVER DUMP PHOTOS, pick one or two or a few that speak to the
event or occasion and leave it at that. His second one is also food for thought, but you will see me break it right here.
He said never post a photo of a great idea that you had for a shot that failed, no matter how you might feel that 'People
will understand what you were going for and let their brain make up for the shortcomings." Something like that.


Well screw the rules, I just like the background in this photo, and although my subject was not in focus as he should
have been, ehhh, there are so few photos left in my bucket that I posted to use here and never did, and I am so bored
sitting here that I will break any rule to kill the boredom, lol. My friend Mark taking a break outside his recent Tornado

Manual focus only lenses are tough in the dark on a digital camera, exacerbated by alcohol intake. But at least I got his
shoulder in focus.
