great idea! dad always carves at the big meals...
that round mole-looking spot on the ham is a bit distracting to my eye...i would be interested in seeing the shot without it.

Makes me hungry but not sure how it fits the challenge. Good macro though.

I can see the potential in this idea. The little bit of plate distracts from your idea and presentation. Am struggling to find a strong link with adulthood.

I would have liked to see the front of the ham sharply in focus 7

Originally posted by macpapas: Ha, great capture! Hope you didn't get into an accident in trying to get this shot. :-) Great focus and DOF for a moving picture (even if moving slowly). I would have tried to remove some of the blue-ness of the picture in PS.

Thanks -- not quite! I'd guess we were moving between 15-25 mph at the time -- people perform this stunt regularly at this location, so I was somewhat prepared for it, although I couldn't stage it for them to cut in front of me.

It was a little tricky as I had to hold the camera well off to the side to shoot around the Acura. The color is actually pretty much the way it looked -- this was right around sunrise on the shaded side of the hills.

All too familiar with this feeling. Of course I've done it too.... Good job catching the angle enough to make it obvious.

It looks too... snapshotty. For this challenge, the foreground object should have been that jeep trying to cut in. This looks just like something taken out through the windshield.
