Single frame DV image. Hand-held. October 1998.

I shot this as part of a camera test during the first few minutes I owned the camera. I knew that red always gave video fits, so I guessed that this combination would stress the camera out totally. As you can see, it didn't. I did remove some stray leaves from the brick background with the cloner tool in Photoshop, though. I have a rule: Simplify, simplify, simplify. If it means using software, so be it. Other photographers might call this cheating. I just call it 21st century spotting.
