Geez, Paul, you make this too easy. San Francisco? Japanese Tea Gardens?
Spiders? Come now. You couldn't have driven to Yosemite for some color? Give
us the cliches we want? Sigh....


The Ginkgo trees are still in fall color:

...but this was the better shot. I'm headed to Arizona for a cactus-y
xmas if that's exotic enough for ya.

However, you did shoot with expensive
gear, so you seem to give a rat's ass about the shoot-in. Remember, it's the
gear, not the shot.


It's all about the exif :-)
I was able to choose a good background by moving around & still get the
tilted web in focus... a perfect application for this specialty micro
nikkor.


Grade: B


I'll take it.
