The Daily Glimpse Project #4

I tried something new for my daily glimpse project: taking pictures from R’s level without looking through the lens.

R tends to avoid the camera like the plague…or like she used to avoid food (ha!)…so I figured this way I could 1] get a new angle and 2] get her to not look away from me!

Things I did to make this work:

1] Changed my focus points from center focused only to activating all focus points (gives a higher probability that he will be in focus)

2] Tried to get the fastest shutter speed I could to avoid blur – you can do this by stopping down the aperture (which I like to do anyways)

and

3] Let go!  These pictures may not be exactly perfect or have the exact composition you would normally use, but that’s the point!  Something different, something cool and something fun!

Here are a couple of other shots I had fun taking today =)
