The upside of having so much snow. Tuggie would play with this Hollee Roller ball for hours.

Olympus OMD EM-1 - Shutter Priority at 1/1250; f4.5, ISO 200, 31mm.

As always, I look forward to your comments/suggestions.

Pretty well done , how do you like the Olympus, I currently have the E-620 and I am debating to go forward with Olympus or a Nikon D7100. your input would be appreciated.

Blue sky, white snow and fast action, I like.

Reminds me of a shark breaching water for a seal. Cool shot.

Hi Raymond, I traded in a Canon 7D which I just never could get to focus properly, for the OMD EM-1 - and I *love* it. The MFT size is perfect and way more portable for me. I actually grab my camera now instead of leaving it home now. The infinite configuration possibility for the buttons and dials is to my liking as I am learning to customize it to suit my needs. I like the lenses I got (M.Zuiko 12-40mm Pro, M.Zuiko and 14-150mm). If you have specific questions, please ask.

Jack - that is a wonderful analogy - sure does! No harm was done to any Hollee Rollers in the making of this photo :-)

Beautiful shot, Diane! Though I think you overdid the sharpness of the snow on Tuggie; I can almost outline the area of the sharpness effect.

Daniel - thank so much for the observation. It is actually from blurring the background and not being careful/having the right techniques to blend it as it is closer to the subject. I am going to try to re-work that. I really appreciate your comments!

Is this an improvement?
