Ok time for my first constructive criticism request.. lets start the basics..
Camera & Acc. Used=
Camera Body: Sony Alpha 300 (10.2 mps)
Lens: Minolta prime lens 50mm f1.7
External Flash: Sony Model HVL-F36AM
Other useful information=
Lighting aside from the flash is from a house hold ceiling lamp. (not sure if that helps).
Quality of photo is set to Fine..
Creative style is set to Vivid
white balance is set to AWB..
Picture is set to Large format (approx 8.4mp)
Subject(s)=
2 dozen or so small pebbles
a rock around the size of a normal hand (white with a bit of brick coloring)
some tree bark.. from the stand which is 2 slabs of tree bark..
Goal=
I am attempting to accomplish different points of focus.. pebbles tree, bark, foreground, etc so in every picture there will be something out of focus (pls keep in mind that this is part of my goal)
All pictures are
Aperture: f 1.7
Shutter: 1/80th
ISO: 100
metering mode: Center weighted
they only differ with manual focus and auto.. (I really thought I had taken a more diverse amount of pics.. but I guess those were the ones I didnt like and deleted.. sry)
1st..
Manual Focus trying to capture the 3 subjects with a blurred foreground and background
2nd..
Manual Focus as well focusing only on the bark
3rd..
Auto Focus trying to only get the pebbles
4th..
Manual Focus attempting to replicate photo #3 but adding a blurred foreground
Thanks ahead of time..
Joe
