The ABC Wednesday Round 3 letter of the day is E
On the Eve of Cedric's and Susan's wedding. I shot most of these photos of the "rehearsal dinner" (i.e. barbecue in the beautiful backyard of daughter Candace and son-in-law Clinton, the parents of the groom) on the Evening of August eighth. To see photos of the wedding, see my previous post.
Long buffet table laden with fresh, newly-picked corn
and several varieties of potatoesfrom the farm,
salads, and steak, chicken, and salmon from Clinton's grill.
Clinton tends barbecue grill (out of sight of feasters) enveloped in smoke.
(photo by Candace?)
The groom joins his Uncle Otto and Aunt Kristin
in serenading the feasters.
The lawn is surrounded by flower beds and trees.
Three long picnic tables seated the wedding party and their families.

As the sun set, lanterns were lighted among the trees

To answer your question, I use manual focus quite often, and for animals, birds, insects, I always focus on the eye.
