I don't know what you where trying to do here Vasko, but to me this is just a green blur with some white spots, handheld at 1/15 really shows up here. I am sorry if I missed the point. #6962

Peder,

You are the guy with the the photo of the little girl with the dark face, if I am not mistaken. I knew I would hear from you...people respond the quickest when their work is questioned, right now I am a perfect example of that....

Point here is very straight forward- memories are always a blur. I realize that there are no technicalities behind this shot, but it makes me smile every time I look at it, nevertheless. Call it an inside joke with myself, if you will. However, I did recieve an e-mail from a woman who remembers her "days in DC" through this shot, so I guess I am not the only one :)

Eyes are truly the windows to the soul, with your shot you simply closed the shutters. She looks like a very bright, beautiful girl, I just couldn't understand why you would concentrate the light on her hair... #10289
