Torrens Babies by

On a Workers Education Association Practical Workshop … early Sunday morning. Walking back to my car along the bank of the River Torrens (City of Adelaide) I came across mother (and father) and babies. Mother was quite unperturbed and stayed while I experimented with a variety of settings. Amazingly cooperative models!!

    Well done with a new lens. You have got just the right depth of field so aperture was correct.

  • Thanks so much!! I was pleased. I find it so hard to see whether I have a good shot until I get it up on the computer. I appreciate your encouragement.,
