p.1 #1 · Water ski sportraits

My family takes a one week trip every year for some water skiing. It's a great chance for us to spend time together and for me to practice my sportraits.

#3's gotta be the best. Look at those water trails!

Give your wife a big pat on the back for that last shot of you.

It's pretty rare when I laugh out loud... Your commentary and the last pic actually made me do it!

These are very well done! And you should find a frame that holds multiple shots and display the set, with a note under the last one.

She's a big supporter and loves to correct folks who say my "nice camera must take really good pictures".

I don't know what you are complaining about. Your wife's focusing skills are consistent with the photos you posted last summer.

That fenceline and the trees are PERFECTLY in focus. It would be an iconic image if it weren't for that OOF blob in the foreground. Oh well, there's always the clone tool.
