Tour de Nez: The Little Kids

And then there were the kids.

Adorable.

The wee ones (7 and under)

The little ones just did one sprint to the finish line. No laps.  Heading back to get their medals.

I loved her outfit. My daughter would have dressed just like this at her age.

Everyone got a medal.

Tour de Nez: The “Old” Guys

The “Masters” race,  for those 45 and older. Yeah, they may have had a little gray, and some thickening around the middle, but holy cow. Awesome!

Day 302 – Jump!

A friend of mine has asked me to do a portrait of her leaping so I thought I ought to practice. Also, I got a third wireless remote which now allows me to auto-focus with the remote and fire the camera and flash at the same time without having to use the pop-up flash as a master, so this was practice using those wireless shutter releases as well.

On top of this, Sweetie and I woke up all achy and with slight fevers, so I’m surprised I was able to find the energy to do this. But then, Sweetie went out to fly his radio-controlled airplane, so I guess you could say we both have our addictions.  He stumbled in a little while ago and I fully expect him to pass out in his overstuffed chair.

Please excuse the dorky look on my face. (And this was actually one of the better ones.)  It was quite tricky firing the camera at the right time to make sure my feet were in the air.  Shot at 400 ISO at f/8. 1/200s.

Day 215 – Playing with Pan

I worked on showing motion by panning today. This is the best of what I shot. I’m going to keep working on this. It’s fun!
