it is an awkward process at times
the moving shots do not work
the small point and shoot does not always capture the picture
and well
not everyone is always excited to have their picture taken
the metaphor of fishing is a fitting one
so often I head out with the camera looking to capture a shot
I see a cyclist in the distance
too far to capture
so I walk onward
another cyclist also too far
sometimes I come back with something
sometimes I end up empty handed
sometimes there is a perfect subject just out of reach
like a fish jumping at the other side of the lake
taunting me
today was a day where I pretty much came up with nothing
I took lots of blurry indoor shots
I took lots of blurry outdoor shots while moving on the bike
I approached a number of cyclists only to be shot down
nothing
absolutely nothing

a day like this one makes the others that much better....
yes
it is good to get good pictures
this weekend I took an amazing of images of my kids on the bikes
all sorts of pictures of the boys with their friends on the bike
like a gang of kid bikers on the city streets of washington dc
went to transfer them
somehow I only got the first half
which did not include some of the better shots
it was a sort of depressing fumble
but
I can just take more shots
