A few weeks ago Richard announced that he would be having surgery on the 4th, and would not be in any position to do any shooting while he recoverd but would have loads of time to critique. I told him that in his honor I would post several of my 'Near Misses' to let him exercise his rapier wit. So, in his honor, here is the first of several that, IMHO, are not yet ready for prime-time. Have at it, Richard, and get well soon:



I had high hopes for this image when I shot it, but have since given up. Even after trying every post processing trick in the book, this image simply lacks something essential.

Thank you. You have proved my point.
