Day 152 - Life in the fast lane

Rollinsford, NH view map

Life is a blur, I rush home from work to rush to a baseball game. Our game ended early and one of the children was waiting for his family to pick him up. My son wanted to play in the playground so we waited and they played. I was a little peeved as I had a chance to rush off to capture a scene I saw this morning in the evening light complete with clouds, but would miss it. I could have made it if we left right after the game too. Anyway, after I came to grips with the fact that I wouldn't be capturing that shot, I pulled out the camera gear and found something to shoot. I tried to talk the boys into staying on the merry go round while I took their [blurred] photo, but they zipped off to something else. This is one of 29 photos and about 50 revolutions on this thing. I still feel sick from this damn contraption. I think I could have used the Tokina UWA for this shot. Of course, the Tokina doesn't have IS (though I think I confused the Canon IS on this shot).
