what though | carolbaby

Yesterday was my first Ducks game of the year – second elimination final, playing Essendon. For the first time in over 10 years I attended no games in the regular season – games were generally on pretty late and I really wasn’t feeling it. Don and Bessie have been going regularly, Joan occasionally, Joe/Frank rarely as he usually works at the games.

I took my distance glasses along (first time ever) and busted them out in the second half – the clarity was incredible. My prescription is about the smallest you can get, but the difference is amazing.

I took the DSLR and took A LOT of photos. But really, the only way I am going to get better at taking photos is to regularly use the camera. I only realised there was a sports mode about half way through the game, it definitely made a difference to the Action shots.

Taking the camera meant I didn’t touch my phone at all – this is definitely a good thing. I’m making an effort to attend more to what is going on around me, so far successful (weaning myself off instagram helped with this tremendously).
