Boardwalk grabber
Uploaded: April 19, 2005
On our recent trip to sunny So. Calif. we stopped on our drive down to Newport at Hermosa Beach. I positioned myself against a post and had my focus on the sign behind and waited for some action. I caught these girls walking.
It was shot at f11 at 1/50 sec. with my 17-85 with image stabalization on at 17mm.

Hi Murry: I signed up for the Street Photography class, and this was called a grabber shot. It didn't hurt that I was in Southern Calif., where the weather was perfect last week! Thanks!!!! #1268707Tammy Scott May 06, 2005
Congratulations for this being featured in the PhotoFlash#26! #1324571Penny Steiner May 06, 2005
Thanks, Tammy. I just opened my email and found PhotoFlash #26 in my mailbox. That was enough to make my day. The Silverman's are really good at making their explainations and their format for teaching is great.Thanks Jim, for adding my photo to the newsletter.
