I think shes happy she got the spare ;)

I volunteer every tuesday with a local girlscout troop that my girlfriend used to be in. Her neighbor is now the leader so we just help out whenever we can. Tonight was bowling night.

With shots like this I never know whats better.

Having everything in focus,
Having just her in focus,
Having the spare in focus...

IMO (which means very little), if I had this shot to take for myself, I may have focused on the pins to make them a little more apparent. Her jumping, even if she was marginally OOF, would be pretty apparent I think and that way you could easily focus on the pins more.

Thoughts?

Please dont take offese to this Adam because that is not my point at all. I just dont know a better way to word this...lol.

The pins werent the point of me taking the shot, she was. Thats why I focused on her.

You say that if I would have focused on the pins and made her OOF you would still be able to see her celebrate. But if you look at the picture the same can be said for the complete opposite. She is in focus and you can still clearly see that she picked up her spare.

I was simply saying that, relatively speaking, it would be much easier to discern her celebrating OOF than the spare OOF. Whatever though. You do what you want :) Like I said, its just my opinion.
