Day 259 - Morning Pumpkins

York, ME view map

Did something a little different today, I sought out my PaD on the ride into work, knowing that there would be no time for a photo after work. Good thing too, there was no time after. I took Rte 91 into work, one of my alternate routes, it was the road I commuted for about 9 or 10 years before my company moved to Portsmouth, NH. As I came up on a farm stand, I noticed some pumpkins lined up on hay bales. Early pumpkins, not too many. I think they were supposed to be covered by a tarp that had blown off (it was a little windy). Anyway, I figured this would be today's shot. I'd like a "Sea of pumpkins" but I will take what I can get. On the rest of the route, I found a future PaD, possibly tomorrows as I am not sure how long it will be in place. Now that I look at this photo again, I don't like that the pumpkin on the left is slightly OOF, I focused on the one with the stem and shot at F4 at ISO 400, I had to hand-hold my 70-200 F4L, it was overcast and I didn't want to bump the ISO or slow up the shutter speed. I need to find a way to get my tripod on the bike...
