Catching Air ~
Uploaded: February 24, 2011
This was such a fun shot! It was taken thru my side view mirror catching a glimpse of Freddy with his head out of the back window of the car. I borrowed the Nikon D3100 Camera for this picture. The only real adjustment I made was a small crop and a drop shadow effect using Adobe Photoshop. Focal Length 55mm Exposure Time 1/250 sec ISO Speed 3200 and I did not use a Flash ~
I rescued Freddy from a local Humane Society in October of 2010 and by the way it looks, HE is "LOVING LIFE"
Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 10/2500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 3200, FocalLength: 55.00 mm, Model: NIKON D3100

Congrats Ali! I love the way you captured Freddy doing what he loves to do! :-) #1356235Rob Bishop February 26, 2011
So I am just browsing through this months theme category, and I am drawn to this shot. I love how you framed Freddy inside the side view mirror. Congrats on saving Freddy, and showing us how he enjoys life. #9263674Alice Lero March 07, 2011
Thanks Polly and Rob! I hoped the judges would give this photo a second look. The thing is....Freddy just seems special because of his story and the fact that I found him in our local Humane Society. "Actually, I think he found me, but that's another story" LOL! He is quite serious, but when he can, he seems to take on life to the fullest and the theme "LOVING LIFE" was perfect for this shot. #9277990frank w. degenhardt May 25, 2011
Well girl, I would'nt worry to much about the judges. Aa an artist you do what you enjoy. Thats why I don't enter into the contest anymore. I want to do my own thing.Alice Lero June 11, 2011
Thank you Frank! You are soooo Kind! ;0) I can tell you that I am having a fantastic recently taking picture of these old cars and can't seem to get enough of it. Who knows.....It may just become more than a hobby if I keep going to these car shows.JO ANN CLEVELAND September 06, 2012
