This is my dad.

Cheers to him for being a good sport and letting me take this picture of him.

(I did take at least one other decent/normal photo of him during the shoot.)

Tough shot, since it was getting dark and even at 400 ISO and f/4.5, exposure length was a full second. The Canon 10-22 isn't really meant for portraiture, but I'm finding that I like the long end of the lens; I'm finding it can do more than I thought it could. My camera's getting awfully old by today's standards, but good glass is still good glass.

I get a real kick out of the bell curve on this one. I also think it's funny that despite scoring ~6.3, I got no comments at all during the challenge! And at this point (2011.12.12), it'd still have no comments if not for Johanna's brief missive.
