Actually, I was aware that Suzie (the dancer) was twirling and moving around generally in front of Jen, and I did consciously take that photo knowing that Suzie would be in the frame, and nicely OOF. But, I was concentrating on Jen's and Suzie's head (I wanted to get Jen's eyes open - she closes them a lot <g>), and while I was aware of what Jen's body was doing, I didn't know what Suzie's body was up to. I know that all sounds pretty weird, but there's only so much I can watch out for at once, and once I'm overloaded, I just snap and hope for the best. Come to think of it, I mostly just snap and hope for the best pretty much all the time! <vbg> thanks for your thoughts, Don, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
