perfectly imperfect

I had a noob moment today where I took more than a dozen photos before I realised I had the ISO on 800 in the middle of a bright sunny day. So much for nice clear pics with my new lens.
Typically, I managed to get some great shots which could have been a lot better with no digital noise.
Another reason this pic is wrong... Pretty sure eagles don't normally eat chips. But hey, I still love this pic. :)

I like this thread and throwback Thursday. This sky over Florence was simply spectacular, but a huge contrast ratio. So the shadows are quite noisy and I could never make it very large but I sold quite a few matted 20x24.

I'll play along too! Here is a picture of my almost 3 year old son in which it is by far my favorite of him!

This was handheld, zoomed in a lot, and I must have moved when I pushed the shutter down and cropped off his head. As soon as I took the photo, the hawk flew away.

Ohhhkay. I wanna join!

I took these a few months ago when I was trying to prove that my MILC COULD handle birds in flight. Out of probably 500+ shots Focus was a failure every time, but there were a few NEAR hits.

I can't help but think what an awesome capture (for me) this *could* have been.

This one, I like how the clouds frame the bird. So sure, Its out of focus and it doesn't "fill the frame" but I like it anyways!

This was completely put out of focus and way to close to my boy but I still love it for some reason

I need to learn to take my time. In my haste I didn't notice the two blades of grass until it was too late.

Blown out book highlights, overedited, and I lost the original RAW when my harddrive was stolen :( Still in love with it!!
 
Photoshop can fix that easily. Send me a copy and I'll fix it if you'd like.
