    Default Fast Focus Practice

    We have been covered up with carpenter bees this year for some reason and they have turned the yard into a no holds bar cage match. So I thought I would use them to practice focusing on on moving objects. Some great practice it was too. Got a few, and I mean few, halfway decent shots of the little guys. They were about 10-15 feet from me and headed towards Mach 1.
