Gee Robert, was 35 alternates for PAW 11 really necessary? I think you
chose the right one; it has 4 different guys aiming 4 different
directions with 4 different expressions. You couldn't have done it
better if you'd staged it. Great job!

And, by the way, you are getting a very eclectic PAW page.

This weeks picture shows a few people playing ball.  Shot with a R8 and
a 
90mm Summicron.  Some of the alternates were shot with the 180 APO 
Summicron.  I also used the M6 TTL for the final and the awards 
presentation.  I haven't scanned any of those pictures yet.  I feel the 
best one is posted as the PAW.

The Week 11 PAW is here:

The alternates are at the link below.  Who says you need Auto Focus for 
Sports?  The alternates are all the decent shots in four rolls of thirty

six exposures.  I got thirty five decent in focus shots out of those 
rolls.  Even AF will not top that in a fast sport like this.

Comments and critiques are welcome.  I am trying to use the whole gamut
of 
my photo skills in my PAW project.  I will even try some portraits at
some 
point.  Probably not Gothic chicks.

Regards,

Robert
