Harvesting Mustard Seed II

A continuation from yesterday.

I really like the emotional feel of this photograph. I remember checking the shots on the back of my camera after we got back on the road and feeling that I captured the scene well. There definitely is a sense of, "we harvest mustard, what of it?" in this shot.

I do remember now: I did have aperture priority set. Sadly it wasn't until I got to a better display back in Hyderabad that I found out that f/2.8 can be a little soft with this lens. Even sadder still I didn't find out until I got back to the states that the primary defect was with the camera's CCD calibration causing it to back-focus ever so slightly. That really made my shallow depth-of-field shots a hit-or-miss challenge.

I found out when I got to Japan that I shot better on the camera when it was like this after I had a few drinks in me :-)
