Great panning technique there. You're an expert now!
What did you talk to Jenny Kee about while you photographed her glasses?

She can't have them.
They're mine I tell you Mine; Mine. Mine! :P

It did yes. I'd have liked to try a few different speeds and to have played with the various autofocus options available to me. But I had just walked up to the highway and waited for a bike to go by. I started getting abuse (honking and shouting) and I got nervous. So I left after taking only a few shots.

I thought everybody knew the moon was made out of green cheese. Thomas, my 4 year old grandson told me. But mice like green cheese. Thomas also told me that. So I bow to the expert (Thomas) on this. :lol:

I checked the colour balance. I think the cosmic rays from the trip threw the WB off. Is this more accurate according to Thomas?
