took my new lens out to the park to play.

out-of-focus #25

i have to get out and get more out-of-focus photos of the fall colors. i realized i only got one or two during my walk in the park last weekend! click here to see some really beautiful blurry fall photos by the very talented photographer, georgia. and while i’m sharing links, you have to go check out the new additions to the 100 out-of-focus flickr group!! radiant reflections has an excellent start to her 100 out-of-focus photos!

anyone else have some great out-of-focus photos? join the group and add them to the collection!!

sometimes i think i mess up my settings on my camera so bad that i don’t even know what is going on… and here, trying to capture the movement of a football game going on in the park… i should have stayed in my spot, shooting and changing settings until i got a better image. i feel like this is the only way i will learn what means what as far as my settings go. unfortunately, the fall colors of a bright yellow tree were calling me, willing me in their direction.

i do like the movement in the photo, but i can’t help but wish i could actually capture and freeze the players. maybe my lens doesn’t have the capability… but i’m sure my settings have some bad effect as well. anyone have advice for what settings i can use on my dslr in order to capture movement better?

the first one didn’t turn out too great, but i pulled out my polaroid camera before heading to the park to take in the sunshine, warm weather, and delicious fall colors. and look at the magic i captured! love it!
