Back to the Farmer's market . . .

I found this in a garden outside the parking garage. I'm so jealous of the healthy plant life here in S CA. Everything in TX is dried n fried.

I borrowed Peggy's 100-400 to shoot this in the Farmer's market. Took it from about 10 feet away. It's great doing a shoot with someone using the same system as you!

There's a lot more to shoot at venues like this, great place to people watch and such. Street photography isn't something I'm good at or comfortable with so I stick to closeups.

You've always had a strong eye for composition and now you're familiar enough with the gear that is doesn't get in your way anymore. It's like getting to Carnegie Hall, it takes practice, practice, practice!
