People Horse Pulling

Horse Pulling · 07:43 PM

Took this earlier this afternoon at the local fair. After shooting Canon and Nikon I have to say that this is the first time I have had and used a manual focus lens on a camera body for more than 2 hours!

I can't wait to get my Takumars! Anyways, it was a challenge but I did get some good ones. My 50/1.4 sure is a sharp lens and it's got some pretty good bokeh too!

K10D, SMC Pentax-A 50/1.4@5.6, ISO 200, 1/640s.

I like the shot and am betting on the horse.

I also love my SMC-A 50/1.4.

neat composition. the folks in the background give it a more lively feel.

It was early in the day so there weren't too many people there. Thanks for the comments.

Very cool - you get a sense of the power of the horses in this shot. Well done.
