I think you been out in the sun too long. With Photoshop this would be an
easy composite to do. Pictures aren't real anymore. I had the winner of the
Yates Mill yearly photo contest sent me. My first reaction was wow what a great
shot. My second reaction was this guy combined three different shots. I
found out talking to the person who sent it to me that was a HDR shot. I wonder
if I saw an actual print instead of an electronic version would it look too
sharp to be considered real?

anyway... so I got the guy to throw the fridge off the roof and
then
the auto-focus on the camera stalled and I missed the shot.
I tried to get the first 32feet per wahtever but it just flew
out of
the frame before I could place it on one of the thirds.
I treid
to follow it and catch some decisive moment in it's movement,
when the
universe conspired to deliver its equivalent to my sensor...
but no the
universe wasn't watching.
In the end I thought... What the
hell.... "f:8 and be here" but then,
as I said, the auto-focus
didn't cooperate.
The only words that came to mind were "Oh
shit" (Please excuse the
expleteives) I'd have asked the guy to take the
fridge back up
(Althouth the last staircase to the roof was quite a
challenge) but
unfortunately it was totally devastated.
I
did get a nice shot of the debris but I think the file was deleted on
the
computer or maybe corrupted or something because I looked
everywhere for
it but it's totally gone. ummm it may be on the USB
flash device that
doesn't appear when I plug it in?
Oh well.
Anybody got a used
fridge? (I mean a working one so that I can keep the
beer cold.... I'm not
gonna try that experiment
again!)
