Here's one of my favorite soccer pics from this past season. Dreary conditions as you can see the falling rain drops.


Canon 1D MkII 70-200 non-IS @ 200mm 1/500 f2.8+1/3 ISO 400

Hmmm, Something looks out of place here. If that were me at that age playing soccer, my white shirt would look closer in color to the shirt an the other two kids, perhaps with a little green smudged in there as well. I don't think I've ever seen a soccer kid with such a white shirt. []


Very Nice picture anyways. nice DOF

Nice blur, Doc and I like your creative titles to your shots. How do you post the camera data like that, it

Thanks Steve.


I use a screen capture tool built into Mac OS and grab the image from the Metadata Tab in Aperture then insert the image in my comments using the rich formatting tool for the reply.

Here are a few froma few from a walk around the garden last week with my new Sigma85mm.


The first is a bird. Bird of paradise the camera focused on the purple and there is a little ant in focus on the underside of the purple but the rest of the plant is OOF and the creamy blur behind is what the 85 can do. First can be my entry, others are just for to share.

Hello, and thank you for your information! I wanted to figure out a way to do this without Aperture, so I searched the usual google, and found this,I wonder if it will do the same thing? If not, well I hope it helps others! guides.macrumors.com/Taking_Screenshots_in_Mac_OS_X

I'm sorry, I must have missed something here. What is it that you are trying to accomplish by doing a Screen Capture of your computer screen / monitor?

Ha ha! Thanks. At ages 4-5, there weren't a ton of kids rolling around on the ground. This shot, as I recall, was pretty early on in the game, probably about 5 minutes after it started raining. I have pics from later on where they were soaked. The shirts were much less clean. []
