Nice work! The 2nd one you really nailed the focus - a relaxed yet exciting composition too, if that makes any sense...(!)


Here's a few examples of what I'm trying for - focus-wise. But like I said, these 3 are the hits; there's about 5 or 6 misses for each of these 3 good ones.


Eventually I'll explore adding some motion blur during capture - I assume that means panning with the swing, using a lower shutter speed - but I think I need to practice just getting the focus right first.


Does anyone know if the File Info in PS tells you focus mode? I looked through that huge dialog box but couldn't find it. I think these were all Servo, but I'm not sure. would be nice to know...


Thanks again everyone, for posting your photos and sharing your thoughts.
