Focus day 2

Oh what a beautiful day we had here today. I think I heard it was around 70 degrees. That is my kind of weather. I actually was able to get the girls out to play . It was wonderful getting a breath of fresh air and not having to freeze while doing it. I can see that I have been getting way to much practice in doors because when I got outside with my camera I was so uncomfortable. I didn't do a CWB and WOW do I have regrets now.
So for today's theme, I took My Awesome photography book found the definition for Focus and took a picture focusing mainly on that word. It was kind of hard to get a super good close up with my 50mm, but I tried.
Focus Day 2
Manual - ISO 100- f/1.8- 1/640
Then while I was outside I took a snap of the berries on my hedges. I think this is pretty good focus if I do say so myself. LOL!

focus-day-2-018
Manual- ISO 400- f/1.8- 1/1000
yes I screwed up the settings. I was holding my camera, holding Laken and pushing Mya on her bike! That is multi -tasking if I ever seen it. I am sure I looked like a goof trying to get a picture of berries on a dead hedge. Wonder what my neighbors think when they see me with my camera outside taking pictures of things other then people. I guess the same things I used to think when I would see someone taking pictures of the same type of things before I got into photography. They will really talk this summer when they see me on my head trying to get that perfect shot of my kids playing. LOL.
Thank you all for the wonderful comments each and every day.. I love them and look forward to them.

Great idea for focus on the definition. Michaela did this for me as a housewarming gift. She did photography and had it printed on matboard for me.
