With the marks on the road showing the rig's near disaster I think you still got a great looking shot!

I recently bought an X20 for travel photos and times when a large kits is labour some. In the first few days it was all about getting used to non nikon settings.
Here is a beautiful image of a lovely looking girl and her dog who came into my shot just as I was taking pictures of the lake. Unfortunately the exposure just was wrong and in my haste, what should have been a cracker image was almost.

Perhaps next time I'll be quicker off the mark with my settings.

HaHa! This made me chuckle after having a very, very strange, stupid day at work. Definitely a dead something or other.

This shot has defied my every attempt at correction... The shot below has been lightly touched-up in 'post but, for whatever reason, I never seem to be happy with the final product. I finally just gave up and decided this is as about as good as we're going to get...

Hi HF,
Some people need more time to discover that you can't, and should not
even try to, improve on good! An old saying states that better is often
the enemy of good!
This is, in its own way, beautifully zen! The only thing that could have been
done better, and that was before you touched the trigger, you could have given
it the much softer background that is seen on each side…
Very cool shot, buddy!

Wow! The June bugs around here are not as colorful. They are just an ugly bug brown color. They lie on their backs, flailing their wings until they die. My dog likes them, though, she finds them tasty.
