Odell Park Revisited

Tonight after work I took a trip back to Odell Park to get more pictures of that pesky waterfall. Using manual focus instead of auto focus made a big difference, however there still wasn't enough light to shoot with a fast shutter speed. Battling camera shake and mosquitoes, I managed to get a couple of decent shots. Why did I leave my tripod in the car?

I've also decided that I should lead my posts with text, rather than put the photos first.

I didn't realize that I still had Partial Metering turned on from last night, I don't know how much of a difference it made, but I'll have to take another trip some day to find out.

It's eating the bread!

Ok.. so I've posted a bunch of photos, and a lot of photo info for each one, so I'll post this photo of the fountain in the middle of the duck pond, and call it a night.
