13/365

11.3.2008
If I had realized this was the 13th picture, that would have been the perfect excuse to skip it tonight. What a long day. Out about about. Working. Picking up. Dropping off. Groceries. Oy.
So at 11pm I was really grasping for an excuse to just skip it. Everyone's in bed asleep. So I decided to do a sleepy shot. I've been wanting to see what settings I needed to change to get my ISO above 1600 and I think I got it based on a thread on OPS. I had to delve back into the world of manual shooting which has previously made me feel like a bumbling fool (so I've been in Av for over a month) including manual focus (er, so the back slats of the crib are nice and crisp) so there are positives here! So I feel like I got a crappy shot but I did move forward a little bit!
