    Default Hello Botch

    I just wanted to bring to everyone's attention about these photo's by Botch http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/member.php?u=12994

    I see you're hobby is photography and I know generally speaking the photographer makes the picture, not the camera. However, your pics seem to have an extra bit of clarity to them.

    What type camera do you use?

    Botch doesn't seem to be reading this forum recently to answer this question. So I'll take a stab at it.

    For one thing he is not using the camera on autofocus like most of us do.
    He is using a wide open aperature to get a narrow field of focus. This brings attention to the subject by making the background fuzzy.
    My guess is he is using a SLR camera with good quality changable lenses.

    Maybe Botch will eventually get on and point out my errors is my guess.

    The trail was here before we arrived, and it will still be here when we are gone...enjoy it now, and preserve it for others that come after us
