Action Photos

Hi everyone,

     This was fun and makes you think about shutter speed and aperture. I did some moving cars with blurred background at the Gratiot cruise and a couple stop action of moving objects.
   The moving cars was hard to do without the tripod.  I took a lot of pictures to get these few sharp shots. Most were done at 1/30sec.  At 1/30 it's hard to do a still subject handheld. I basically tried to get the background and wheels blurred with the subject sharp

A IS FOR "ARIZONA is AWSOME"

Hey guys,
I've been on the road all week moving my son from Tucson to Virginia.  We made it yesterday.  All I have is what I shot in the Arizona desert---so here are my A pics.
I am really pleased with my new 11-16 tokina wide angle lens.  WOW!!  My first landscapes and I love the results so far. Although some of the views were taken with my 100-400 canon lens at 100mm with good results like #2.
