Happy Birthday Ang! I hope someone spends a few hundred billion $ on you today, have a blast, wish I could be there...Notice, in the last shot, how the out of focus highlights echo the whole scene over and over?

More focus weirdness, Kakheti, Georgia
Moving water, grass, and the decision to see them differently. Oh, and keep that aperture wide open for minimum depth of field and so the out-of-focus highlights will be circular...Welcome to the 2 newest blog visitor countries: the Palestinian Territory and Syria!

Wot in the world...?!, Kakheti, Georgia
... So a friend lent me her 70-300mm lens for the EOS for a few days. I was ready. Last post's bottom 2 Guinea-fowl frames were via this lens. So are today's crazy out-of-focus shots, which all occurred at or near the tiny bit of sunlit stream in the bottom shot. Put the lens on manual focus, establish an average manual exposure as well, and DREAM. Just water, and spiderwebs (middle shot).

Stream, Etseri, August 2001
Water is a huge subject for me, along with reflections on it. This humble stream is not often so colourful, but I see it every day when I'm "at home" in Etseri. So, plenty of time for different moods to present themselves.
Photography is mostly about a) freeing oneself from needing to think about how the equipment works and b) seeing in new ways, which are often inner visions brought to realisation.
