Just for fun (or embarrassment)



I just said somewhere else that I instantly delete my flawed photos but, lo and behold, there are a few in my folders that could qualify for the Muffed Target challenge (which I am not entering).
This was supposed to be a photo of a pigeon who landed on the ledge of one of the office windows, and it was a quickfire shot. Before I could adjust the settings and fire away again, the bird was gone. The photo was preserved because it was still on my memory card after my old laptop had died and I downloaded it again.

I have a couple like this I got at the parade the other day. People kept moving faster than I could adjust my camera!

One of my goofs was funny because even though Amoeba -- my target -- was horribly blurry, the person who is in focus is someone I know, but I'd never even noticed he was standing behind Amoeba!

quilly - yeah, sometimes cameras seem to have a mind of their own...
