Title: A Little Spring
Post by: MR.FEESH on May 07, 2009, 09:01:28 pm

I'm enjoying spring, and this is the best I can do with a < $100 p&s that gets to decide what it wants to focus on and exactly how much is in focus.  
I dunno, I think some of these are okay.
Like any/ hate any?

I like the flowering dogwood in the third image!

Hey thanks guys! I like 1-3 a lot as well.  The droplets I think...it's harder to get the effect I was looking for with a camera like mine since I can't just change the depth of field to get what I want in focus    But what can ya do, at least I have something to shoot with!

The droplets are actually very good as is.  I'd recommend different crops to draw more attention to those.

Hmm yeah, I was actually thinking of changing up the first of the two.  I figure since there's not much else going on in the picture (for example how there is a flower in the latter), I might try something a little more centered on the in-focus leaf.
