Get a Grip!


	~GET A GRIP!~ ACB - Storytelling This image is one of four for my story-telling series for certification. Getting those balloons up in the air and down again takes a team effort. Here is a "gripper" helping to bring down and deflate this balloon. Set-up: Monopod, taken at f8 with an IS0 of 188 at a shutter-speed of 1/30 of a second Debbie E. Payne

Wow, Marisol - I didn't realize that this one had got any comments until I entered it. I'm sorry I didn't respond. I like how it fills up the frame as well. My balloon shots are usually up in the air but I did see potential in this shot. What would I do without my balloons! Thanks again for taking time out to comment.

Hi, Aimee. I was concerned about he glare on his forehead but decided to leave it alone. What do you think?

I think you made the right choice....removing it altogther would have looked strange and I see no way of toning it down without it looking messed with. :~)
