It's actually a train. We were on our way to a Mets game. That photo was taken with my kit lens in the shade of the train platform. The train was going fast so I stood there (Human Tripod triumphs once again!!!) and when I heard it coming, focused and held my finger down. I had about 10 frames - but this one you could see the reflection of the people standing next to us. It was the best. And the creepiest. I looked at the photo properties and it says I had my kahuna set at f/5.0 with a 0.04 second (1/25) exposure. ISO at 100 and my focal length was 22mm. I shoot on "continuous" quite often and pick my favorite out of the bunch. The 2nd one? It’s actually a train. We were on our way to a Mets game.

A WHOLE LOT! Playing with shutter speeds are so fun. You did a pretty good job with it. I've been itching to get some more of the "speed" shots in myself. You should definitely break out the tripod..it does WONDERS! On another note. I feel ya on your lack of taking pictures. I've been like that since I moved to Germany. Sad to say, but true. It's always rainy and crappy here and the weather is always the worst. I rarely get to go out much because of the weather and other reasons. Staying cooped up in a house for a while can really give you cabin fever. That's why when I do get out and what not...I take a mess load of photos to keep me occupied for a while because I know it will be a good minute before I get out again.

Cross my heart hope to die stick a needle in my eye. I hated me when I had to sort through 300 pictures of Times Square traffic. But pushing all those tourists out my way paid off.
