Kristin and I were driving the other day, and one of those Ooo, wait, stop! moments happened.
I was the one ooo-wait-stopping, for the record. It was around seven-thirty, and the Sun was coming in long, low strides. Everything was glowing with warm and soft evening light. I shot this on my 50mm with a pretty shallow depth of field, f/3.5, because I wasn’t interested in too much background detail. I used a low ISO, 320, and a shutter of 1/160 which is fine to get a sharp, handheld shot.
My blog has taken a decidedly scripted direction, but that only because… well, because I haven’t taken any pictures lately. But I have great plans to change all that. Great plans.
See.
More soon.


Like you said, amazing light. Love the first shot.
I can easily understand why you were not too interested in the background- Wow- look at the subject !!!
They are both great but I like the second one.
