i hope everyone gets a laugh

Re: missed opportunities
good idea. Here's one from this spring. Too slow on the shutter.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"]<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"]Shot with a 70-200mm on a 40D set at 200mm. Center point focus (missed to the right) with the wrong "iris diaphragm" to boot.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"]<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"]The second is where the other dog got jealous and parked her butt right in front of my camera as I was shooting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"] I went ahead and shot up her back for a decent shot.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"] She later turned her head back to me as if to say "What?" which proves my point about women. All of them (regardless of breed), know exactly what they are doing.
