AT&T Patk

This one was just plain fun. The guy was seated four rows in front of my wife and I when we went to this game. He's a visitor from England and his female host was making sure he got the full baseball experience. He was mugging for her when I stole this shot. I literally had 1 second to raise, focus, and fire, and I love the shot I got. Were I to have more time, I'd have managed a straighter horizon! Unfortunately, once again I didn't leave enough space above his head to allow for straightening the image without losing some of his hat. A presentable image none-the-less!

I hope his dog was still hot when it struck home. And the BG tilt adds to it.

A fun shot! That 50mm f/1.2 is a pretty impressive performer!

An excellent shot of him. I assume he had a few brews also?

Wow - that would make a GREAT stock photo. Even as an editorial use image if there's no model release!

He's never been before and he's already got that nickname? Perfect exposure.
