The Littlest Stormtrooper
Canterbury, January 2015
Early this morning, Dash was up well before the other boys and decided to watch some cartoons on his Nexus. He must have been watching something about Star Wars because he fetched his clone trooper helmet and put it on while concentrating on the film. Sneaking up and grabbing a candid shot was pretty easy - but I noticed that with the shutter speed of 1/25th second, I was pushing the limits of handheld photography with this one. This was taken before most cameras had in-body image stabilisation (IBIS), but through sheer skill and steady hands blind luck, it seems to have worked…
