Our energy fields are different. Ruth has been following yoga tutorials from the internet throughout the pandemic. I sip my strong morning coffee and admire her and her efforts.

Way to go Ruth keep-up that ki.

Very nice. Were the focus points basically random, or intended?

I love also love shooting wide-open close-ups, but I find the Z focus peaking rather distracting. Invariably the actual focal plane is not quite what I expected.

Snoogly, windy day makes exact focus iffy, so i blended two images to fill the frame and added some contrast in post, thank you :)
