Carnival Season is starting in the area where I live. I see it as a chance to work on my street photography skills, which are virtually non-existent. Unfortunately ISO 1600 and an 1.8 prime isn't really fast enough for street lamp lit available light action  :(

Why not, I wonder.  There does seem to be an issue with back-focus here but none of the blurr worries me, in fact it probably adds to the immediacy and vibrancy.

If it's manual focus, then it could be the excitement of the moment. (I like exciting moments - can almost remember them, in fact! I shall expect to have another one when the damned computer comes back. I did a remarkable self-portrait today with the cellphone; it may or may not appeal to anybody else, but I can't wait - well, I shall have to wait - to see how it pans out. Again, a release button on the side of the instrument would have been nice...)

Blurr, as we both know, Walter, has never been allowed to stand in our way. Indeed, it's an added weapon in the arsenal.

Thanks for the comments. I used the Nikon 35mm 1.8 which I find hard to operate manually quickly enough under difficult conditions. So I tried to use autofocus, which also didn't work out so well.

Yes, less is so often more; difficulty is knowing when!

Not a word!

But at least I managed to get the Internet back on this one. I was going double-nuts (?) for a while whilst I had no toys to play with, but I can now play music in the wee small hours... love that klrzfm.com late at night!

Found this big ad on a Hotel.



Who wants sustainable meetings? I want my meetings short, to the point and end on time.

Or are we looking at some serious greenwash here  ;)

Maybe the coffee is so yucky, you'll sustain some long term damage from it.
