The last few weeks I’ve put my Leica aside and spent most of the time shooting with my Nikon D800E. Â It has taken time getting accustomed to it because I’ve gotten so used to using a manual focus camera. Â The Nikon D800E is a very large camera in comparison to my Leica and even though I like the picture quality, my Leica will still be at my side the majority of the time. Â I love the challenge shooting with a manual focus camera. Â Also, I find it at times more difficult to shoot in autofocus because it doesn’t necessarily focus on what I want it to.
 Here’s a recent picture of my beautiful baby girl.  We were heading out for a wagon ride and the light coming into the garage really accentuated her beautiful blue eyes.  She definitely got them from mommy.

Here is a perfect example of how you can break the rule in photography that says that your subject shouldn’t be in the middle of your picture. Â The use of my wifes arm and body allowed for an excellent “framing” of my subject, my beautiful baby girl.

We were walking down Michigan Avenue and I decided to walk behind to catch a few candid pics of my baby girl. Â I think she was a little sleep deprived and was acting a little crazy. Â She kept waiving at me but everyone around me didn’t realize I was her father, thus they thought she was waiving at them.
