Knowing how to reduce the softness would help to. Just any suggestions would be great.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

sevillafox I'm good with pathetic! Really, I am.  25,223 posts Likes: 35 Joined Oct 2007 Location: Southwest Wisconsin More info | Jan 07, 2008 20:06 | #2 Welcome to POTN! It's a great-and addicting place to be. This is a super cute shot but I think the focus was on her hat rather than her face. Try focus locking on her eyes and then recomposing. The softness is all because the focus is off, I think, or that you have too small an aperature. Try again quick before she grows up. Tiffany

queenbee288 Cream of the Crop  More info | Jan 11, 2008 09:18 | #6 Exif data is not really going to help with your focusing problem. Did you let the camera choose the foucs point? If so then it chose the hat because it is closest to the camera. It is hard to advise you without knowing what kind of camera took the photo with. If you used a DSLR then you can tell the camera to focus with the center focus point which is the most sensitive.You can select one of the other points but the center one is the most sensitive. If this point is not directly over the face then focus and recompose.
