Going To A New Home - 12.05.05
submitter: Smart Set
location:Acton, London, UK
I was driving along when I saw this mattress walking towards me. By the time I'd scrabbled for the camera, stopped in the middle of the road, wound the window down and framed the shot it was about to disappear into its new home.

Either that or he just uses those cheap ones that break easily.

As I laid my eyes to sleep, it dawned on me how far from the mark my pun was. With all those tykes SS must be sans diafragma & condom.

Rebecca commented on 12.09.05
And how do you know, V3?

Don't think so Dan

DVD Dan commented on 12.09.05
For some reason I thought of SS as a condom kind of guy.

When you use tele, with your diafragma open(5.6 or less ) you got this effect.

I'm not really sure, ART. I sharpened the whole picture quite a bit, not selectively on the matt. I think it looks sharper than the rest mainly because it's in focus, but the whole pic suffers from camera shake, perhaps because this was a hand-held telephoto shot at only 1/40th sec or because I involuntarily panned right to follow the mattress as it moved, and the panning had the effect of making the mattress less blurred than the rest. Glad you like the pic - I do too.

what I especially like : the focus on the matt and the rest is blurry. That's hard to achive with a standard digicam, or did you do some photoshop?

I was directing to the "scrabble" reference.
