Departure

OK, this is the last one in the series that started on February 4th. Still a shot from the elevator and also happened to be the last one. In the shot here you see the reflection of my nephew leaving the elevator (in my direction). Actually, you can see a faint trace of my legs there too lol

Obscured

Remember the burst mode I've talked about yesterday? This is it still. The scene took about 1 to 2 seconds for my brother and his kids to get out of the elevator, but I kept shooting, at f/1.4.
Now, we typically have some kind of "belief" about the sharpness of the images, and that an image "should" be sharp to make a meaning, but I think this should change. In fact, I've read something similar along this line in Ted Forbes' book "Visually Speaking". The image being out of focus can deliver a meaning as well, which I hope I've achieved here. Don't worry about that lil 20" devil there; he is as annoying as an adult, if not more.

Sometimes it can be useful to #defocus.

That’s how to see the forest for the trees.
