The wind was blowing, which shifted the focus, even if it didn&#8217;t blur it. So even at 1\/500th of a second, the movement was enough to &#8220;ruin&#8221; the shot in technical terms. I could have stopped down, but that might have added some blur. Plus, at 1600 ISO there wasn&#8217;t much room to move up and not introduce noise and\/or color shifts at this sunset hour.<\/p>\n<p>This is part of the craft of photography that is like being the quarterback in a football game or keeper on a futbol pitch, and the part that makes it exciting. Making meaningful images over and over again is the part that is hard work. This was for fun and pleasure.
