I try to work around the toys, but they're everywhere! :) And for what it's worth, I make a deliberate attempt not to crop anything - 99% of the time I post full-frame shots. But you're right, it might have helped this one. Sebastian is fun to shoot because his eyes are *always* on the camera, no matter where I go. And I liked the light, too, so up it went! Also, I was shooting the Lions again last night, and got some better shots, I think, so there will probably be some of those in my next PAW. It was an incredibly tense game - tied at 35 points with just one minute to go. The Lions won on a couple of foul shots, but games like that it almost doesn't matter who wins - I'd go watch anytime! Exciting stuff. I'm surprised how aggressive and competitive the girls are. There's enough pushing and shoving for an NBA game! Plus as a photographer, I get close enough to the action to hear all the amusing foul language (from Catholic school girls!) that the parents don't hear. Love it! :) Regards, Colin http://www.availabledark.com > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of > John Straus > Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 9:35 PM > To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: Re: [Leica] Available PAW > > > on 1/4/02 12:24 AM, Colin at CJV@home.com wrote: > > > http://www.availabledark.com/html/paw/paw.htm > > > My first week is a mixture of subjects that are new and > old, plus some > > teenage girls in shorts. > > The wide eyes of the youngster in the main shot are good and > the light is nice.
