Portrait Project #13 / by Dave Hileman

Meet Lisa, a realtor from Fort Myers area. I met her on the old set of Sea Hunt that is still on the river in Silver Springs. They filmed 130+ shows here. We met because she saw my camera and lens and was frustrated as her camera was not working right. She was upset that she missed several pictures because it would not focus. She then got it out of her bag and asked if I knew what was wrong. I did! Everyone apply their shocked face right now. I noticed that the switch on the side of her long lens for autofocus was off, moved the lever and, presto, fixed. Not that I ever had that issue. She was here to explore the area around Ocala because home sales here were soaring. I saw her two or three more times that morning as we both were out shooting.
