Touch Of Gold

Went out before going to see my Daughter this morning. Caught some early light.. I wanted to upload this while I was gone so will do so.. Not easy to get this DOF.. Did what I could with Mono pod.. Hope you enjoy..

    awesome .. you’ve captured the light so beautifully and the color .. ahhhh (smile)

    so what’s a Mono pod and what’s DOF??

  • velveteagle replied

    Young lady a nice thing for you to say.. A mono pod is a one legged tripod you could say.. Or a metal staff with a ball head to hold the camera.. DOF means the amount of what you can see in focus from the center of focus.. In front of the subject matter and behind..

    mono pods are good mounted to the lens stick with a tri pod for sure it will allow good slow speeds for max cool saturation every little bit helps
