‘Natter’

Saw a candid moment and grabbed it, wahay👍
Uploaded the shot then realised in horror, that the shot wasn’t sharpe, Booo👎
Only moments before this shot was taken, I was cleaning the sensor, due to oil spots caused by the shutter. After you do this, you take a test shot of a white/pale surface with the focus system in MANUAL, to check the cleaning process!
Then what you do, you re-activate the focus system before taking more pictures. Guess what I didn’t do!😫
Anybody else been that careless?
📷Simple framing and run and gun shoot. Monochrome conversion to add that Reportage feel📷
Effective shot nevertheless and I like the 'warts and all' narrative

It did work on this shot but will be a problem in the future.

Still a great story telling shot.

Hope you can focus again! But the un-sharpness works here.
You do not want to know what mistakes I made and still make. So lucky it is digital and no real film...

Makes it look a little dreamy

This is still a nice shot. I’m sure we all make mistakes at times.

Where would we be with perfection? I like the imperfection but I shoot/use lensbabies often so I guess I'm biased. I do like your narrative.
