I've been practicing portraiture and having trouble with the focus, not sure if it's me or the camera... probably me, lol. I asked Ollie if I could take his photo so this is what I got. He is a cutie.
Cool capture. You've got his eyes sharp, his feet soft. That tells me shallow dof from a fairly wide aperture. Try shooing in aperture priority and us a narrower aperture. Let me know how that works for you.
The focus looks spot-on to me, Sheralee. Having dabbled in the genre a little myself here recently, now it's all I want to shoot for practice's sake. Nailing the focus is my challenge too as is getting creative with posing the subject. I need me some grandkids!
