This is one of those shots that has so much wrong with it...I really shouldn't like it. ; But I just do! ; I had the wrong lens (F4 max) because I had no intention of shooting the parade...I was actually out shooting long exposures on tripod. ; I couldn't get enough shutter speed even at ISO6400, so there's motion blur. ; ISO6400 was noisy, and motion blur plus noise reduction cost lots of detail. ; High ISO and underexposed cost color fidelity. ; But for some reason, I find it interesting and endearing - almost more than a perfectly captured shot might. ; I was going to delete this, and took it very much on a whim...and now I can't bring myself to get rid of it:
