    Lightbulb Flying High

    Well this is my second picture for your comments - Personally I like the colours but not sure about the photo - I found it difficult to run into a possition so that it was directly above and I think all the running caused the camera shake (puff puff!)

    This shot would be better if it was in focus and if the shot was taken at a different angle

    A tripod would have really helped you out here.

    Re: Flying High

    Roger,

    I would suggest in a situation like this: stopping running; lock your focus; focus on holding your camera steady; firing frames. Instead of chasing your subject down to get a better angle. I think that in this particular instance focusing on making a technically sharp photo would outway the benefit of getting the good angle.

    Just my 2 cents.
