Candid

The gray and rainy weather continued today and so I decided to blip something different. Pranaphot blip-dared me to take some surreptitious shots and this is the result.

In this picture, we see my company's IT guy, Dave. He is a good friend and is always busy and can normally be found wandering the office talking on his cellphone. This shot represents a typical Dave moment and I overheard him say something like "try rebooting!". (Typical advice when it comes to Microsoft Windows.)

Dave was unaware that I was going to take this, but turned after he heard the loud click of the 40D's shutter. The shot was hand held with no flash and I was quite pleased with sharpness given the slow shutter speed.

One disclosure, I did show the picture to Dave and he gave his permission to post it. I hope you like it Dave!
