I'm sure it's much appreciated though

Paying job or just for fun?

Nice shot, Tim. How much of a wait and/or hassle was it to get that vantage point?


Cool shot, rodi. iPhones continue to impress.

[rodi]

thanks, guys. i ordered an 8x10 print on aluminum of it. once i develop the film one, i'llprobably get a nice big canvas wrap if it's a good one.

a little soft, but he's a fast little guy.

We're you using ai-servo?
Might we worth a shot. Though depends which body you're using. I did it works a lot better and faster on the 7D then it does on the 5DmkII. I don't remember what body you're using however.

shot that with servo on the 1DiiN. if i weren't shooting at f/2 at 85mm it wouldn't be a problem. when he's running, the DOF is so thin at that aperture I can't really expect the servo to keep up, especially since he's so small.

not to mention running towards you does make it harder too.

Definitely a good attempt though.

Getting the eyes in focus was all you needed and you nailed it. It's funny how you can have almost everything in an image OOF, but get the eyes in focus and you're ok.
