Interesting. I like it. What was it that she was really doing?

Thanks AlphaChicken. The telephoto lens gives the lie to the eye. ;)

She was doing the Frisbee golf course. I guess that was her way of holding before throwing it. :)

LOL, thats amazing. So funny how perspective of a lens can completely change the subject of a photo in our eyes, :)

I didn't plan the shot, just saw it when I processed what was on the card and the thread title is what popped into my head, so I had to post it, see if anyone else got caught in it. ;)

I'm kind of new to Urban and People, should this have gone in People? I couldn't decide. :)

Great, thanks. We don't have that many people here, but the street was just behind me. :lol:

I like both shots canonloader, the first is amusing and certainly looks like she is tweaking the tree lol....the last has a sense of satisfaction about it, like an end of the day feel.

Thanks Roger. Shooting people is a whole new learning experience for me. I like it. :)

Hey Kenny, your up early. Very nice bird. I tried to capture her moves with the camera. I thought it came through pretty well. I think I have a new hobby, to fill in during migrations. ;)

:) I tend to be an early riser for a variety of reasons. Catch those early sunrises and early birds. I've not done much candid photography but have a definite interest in it and urban. Lots of fun!

I've not done much candid photography but have a definite interest in it and urban.

Yesterday was only the second time I tried shooting candid people. There's an element of risk involved which kind of gives me a rush. Cheap thrills. It's kind of like shooting birds, you can tell once they've seen you, but unlike birds, people can let you know how happy or unhappy they are about it. In English. :lol:

But, I'm already thinking of ways to do it and not be seen. Just like the real birdies. :)

An interesting capture, Mitch! I too wondered what she was doing, my guess was geocaching. Very pretty subject, thanks for sharing. Welcome to this part of POTN!
