Post your 'ALMOST' Photos..

[Marilynne]

Notes to self:

1. When shooting landscapes, don't try to take an "all of a sudden" BIF shot, w/o changing settings.
2. When shooting BIF, remember 300mm or a fake 450mm is just not much.
3. Set up another body with two Tamzookas, taped end to end for "all of a sudden" BIF or action" shots.
4. "...Man's got to know his limitations." Then walk away...

Thanks, Marilynne...obviously, I did not know my limitations with uploading images. LOL

I beamed attachment 125639 up to the Mother Ship...I think. So, you will probably have to look at my original post to see the image...possibly.

Hopefully the original post now shows the image I intended. Maybe.

It's there now Carroll. Have a great Thanksgiving.

Really enjoying playing with this mirrorless,its absolutely great for almost pictures

 

[wev]

Great pose, but the light and focus just wasn't there

There's a pretty nice picture in the middle of that big almost shot.

I was taking a static pic when this big boy decided it was time to go

Car came around the corner as I moved in the middle of the road, so I didn't have time to unzoom

When the Tamzooka is too close (about ten feet away) and no way to back up. Also posted in Collages 101 thread

Betcha can't guess where the focus went!!

That's a pretty sharp Leaforagami bird though.

Thanks EL. Hadn't noticed the leaforagami bird. Nice catch.

Would have been a nice pic, if it wasn't for the light, the focus, and the speed

I hope you don't mind but these are good examples for me to see what I can do with the salvage technique I'm exploring.

Many of the "almosts" are actually not bad...

Mine is a REAL almost... been trying to catch a bird in flight with the Tamron and have not had great luck..

Well, this looks like it could have been it... good exposure, clear detail and focus.. BUT......





I failed to catch all of the bird!!!!! (I do like the feather details)

It's tough to get BIF with the Tamzooka Pat, but you'll get it real soon. I have trouble finding them, but found if I track at 150, I can usually keep up with them and zoom in on them. Keep plugging away.
