About "Lesson #1"

-------My grandson . . . James . . . then my grandaughter, the BEAUTIFUL Jenna . . . provided me with a lesson in Hula Hoops. My lovely wife captured it too (See her in the background)? If you're lucky, you'll never see her shot of ME trying it . . . doomed to failure from the beginning.

(Nikon 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6 G; 35 mm; Front curtain TTL-BL bounced flash; ISO 100; 1/60th Sec; F/4)

Not too sure this translated well . . . perhaps you meant composition and not registration? That might make sense. :)

:))) Way to go James... The way his body is twisted for action and that look on his face ~~GRIN~~... This is *family* action fun Doyle, and an extra nice candid...:)))

Hula hoops... A bit like Pogo Sticks, trampolines etc... we can't resist having a go regardless of age... May be it's the memories they bring back that turns us into *Here, give it to me... I used to be really good at this...* and then we proceed to trip up, land on our derrieres, lose our teeth, knickers and dignity and hospital if we're really unlucky... ~~GRIN~~ BUT!!! Gee it's still fun to have a go...:)))

C'mon Doyle, let's see you swinging those hips... Don't be shy, we promise we won't laugh...;)))

Onie...

Ha! Made ya look, ya dirty chook! (umm, not sure how well that translates over your way, but just means the equivalent of the US "Gotcha"... or in more polite/correct English, "I seem to have urged you to search, quite possibly in vain, for something that is not there")

( cover your mouth when you cough - dint yo mama teach you no manners? ) LoL!

...Incidentally . . . I don't think that's me . . . hmmmm . . . I may have to blow it up and see if I can make out the perfect specimen of chiseled manhood in those blue tones . . . that'll let me know!

Hi Robin!!

Ummm . . . nope . . . the hula hoop, as it happens, turns out to be something less than a major strength for me. I'll be by looking for that Collin shot in a tad . . . What a coincidence . . . the adults laughed harder when I was doing the hula hoop too . . . the kids were just giving me pointers. :)

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

LoL! Ok Jan . . . I think it's safe to say that if it eats, breathes or poops it's likely better at using a hula hoop than I am. Clearly I have much more important things to do with my time than learn such things . . . like contemplating the meaning of existence. Heavy stuff. Important, earth shaking matters. :)

That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Ah-ha! Now I know why you've been missing...you ARE planning a series of you vs. the Hoop and you have been devoting all your time to practicing, yes? Now that is something I would pay at least a half a buck to see!

Ok, seriously...this is a fun shot Doyle. Good comp/crop, a hint of movement as James gets ready(?) to let it fly, wonderful color (I've noticed the difference between the old and new cameras), and excellent clarity at the cute pof. Isn't it fun to watch THEM having fun?! I'll have to post a picture of Collin playing "water bottle golf" by the pool...talk about fun, think the adults laughed harder than he did. :)

Take care...Robin

ps...awfully quiet around here. :(

So funny -- all photos of you are with a camera in your face. I agree about the ducking; a camera is the best defense. Consider though that Marlyce has adopted the same strategy. I assume she was better at the hula-hooping than you were? :)
Love the framing of the hoop and James' expression.
Nicely done.
--Best to you and your family, Jan

Ahhhhh Ray, my Dear Friend. The secret to ducking other people's cameras is to have your own and shots of others they don't think deomstrate their better qualities! The best defense is a good offense!

So you are good at ducking other peoples' cameras my friend....well done to you; now send me some tips. A lovely family moment caught here Doyle. I gave up on the hula hoop on minute one 143 years ago my friend.....I could have died. Cheers to you Doyle and the whole family........Take care of you, 'see' you soon........Ray
