Good Year Blimp

2007.08.01

Yesterday my husband was working from home. Out of no where he started rounded up our children to "show them something special" out in the front yard. From his office window, he'd spotted the Good Year Blimp floating past our house!

By the time I grabbed my camera and swapped out the lens to get my telephoto on, I only had a few seconds to get a photo so I put it on Program mode for this shot. I didn't have a tripod in use for this (not enough time) so I didn't have high hopes for the sharpness of this picture. When I opened it on the computer, I was pleasantly surprised to find very little camera shake in any of the photographs.

vollenda Great catch! How fun, I love blimps. They used to scare my mom's weenie dog and she would bark like crazy at their shadow. :)

thepictureman Good capture. Good timing and a little luck are better than any camera or accessory you can own.
