Lazy Days of Summer - Thanks

Thanks.  I think it's one of the most relaxing (lazy) ways to enjoy the summer.

You had enough depth of field to keep everything sharp.  Did you get rain from the clouds?

Re: Show Your Snaps...August 8, 2022

For my tastes, I think I would have liked to have seen everything in focus. If you had part or all of a person or car disappearing around the corner, I think that would have been more interesting. But that's how I like things, but that's not for everyone.

Yesterday I used the same lens at a river. I focused on some rocks in the middle of the river, so the people in the foreground and the objects in the background along the river were all in focus. I had to guess some, since I wasn't looking a depth of field chart. But it looked like I got it.

State of Jefferson

Traveling at highway speeds in California I managed to capture this State of Jefferson sign from my car.  I only had one chance as we were going rather fast.  It's a proposed state of certain counties in Southern Oregon and Northern California.  You can read about it on Wikipedia.  That sign is also shown there.
