PESOs (3) - From Our Tree
This year the red maple in front of our house provided an amazing display, and held onto all of its colorful leaves for about a week. Until… one night there was a windstorm. That stripped all of the leaves at once, but they continued to provide color for a couple more days. Then I swept them up. https://rickwomer.smugmug.com/PESOs-2017/Leaves-2019/ (K-5, DA 17-70) Comments always appreciated.

For posting to Instagram I just use the Opera web browser, switch on Developer mode and choose a mobile device for it to emulate. Simple and effective.

Re: Dickens Fair and the 35/1.4
Yeah, that's how I've been doing it for something like twelve years. I think that it's just the wide world of view and shallow focus so that the camera keeps finding something like writing on the background to focus on .

Re: Dickens Fair and the 35/1.4
From your reply below it seems like you have the customization for the AF button on the "CANCEL AF" setting which sets the camera to manual focus when the AF button is pressed - but only when continuing to press the AF button. It will remain in manual as long as you hold down the AF button but once you release it the camera reverts back to AF with the shutter release button. Is it possible that's what's happening for you? -p On 12/3/2019 4:04 AM, Larry Colen wrote: On Dec 3, 2019, at 1:27 AM, Ralf R Radermacher wrote: Am 03.12.19 um 00:40 schrieb Larry Colen: Rather than focusing on some random object in the foreground, I keep getting all of these photos that are perfectly focused on the wall... I've solved this prob by selecting spot focus in the centre of the image, taking the focussing function away from the trigger, and putting it on the AF button. This way, you put the object you want to focus on smack in the centre of the image, push the AF button and then reframe to get the shot you want. Stop down a little and you're usually good for a few shots without having to re-focus each time. I pretty much do the same thing, but differently. I have the AF button set to lock out AF, so I’ll depress the shutter until I get focus then lock it with the AF button. Same thing, but in normal conditions I don’t have to think about explicitly focusing. I was using the 35/1.4 rather than the 31/1.8 in the low light explicitly because I needed the extra 2/3 of a stop, stopping down a couple of stops would have been counterproductive. :-) Ralf -- Ralf R.
