A hint of summer.

Mr E and his mates are hanging around the garden as the weather improves, which is a good thing.

I'm not going anywhere since my trip to the dentist yesterday, so mooching around sipping soup and munching pills is my lot at the moment. Seeing the boys playing basketball seemed like too good an opportunity to miss.

The light was difficult and the subjects barely tolerant of me but it was interesting to use this technique. I took a background shot before each lay up and kept the framing the same. This gave me two shots which easily matched. I then blurred the background and gave a different blur treatment to Mr E.

A big THANK YOU to everyone for your kind words and good wishes, I am well on the mend. Much appreciated.
