Image Description:
Software: NEX-F3 v1.00
Now the first thing I noticed here is that these images have some focus issues. Take a look at these images at full 100% size and you will see what I mean. They aren’t exactly sharp. Nailing focus on images like this is key.
Now, that said the simplification of colour here is quite nice. You have chosen some really nice colors what work well together and you’ve done quite well in that regard.
I would like you to submit another photo with your focus a bit sharper.
Just be aware that your lens has a minimum focus distance and you might have to be aware of that.
Are you interested in submitting another image or two so I can be sure you are nailing your focus?
Let me know!
