Shot with an XSi using a 17-85IS. C&C is appreciated, as always.   Luvsadog2

Pity it is somewhat OOF or blurry. The colors are great too. I am Henry. NOT Hank. And certainly not a length of rope tied in a knot.

AlphaChicken wrote in post #8695854 I really like the zones/planes that are present in the second shot. Pity it is somewhat OOF or blurry. The colors are great too. Second shot is my pick, but it suffers from not being sharp as most things with that much texture do; very obvious when not sharp. Thank you both .. I definitely see that the second shot isn't as sharp as it should have been -- that will teach me to take more than one shot at different settings when I see something I really like while on a photowalk. I have a habit of taking one shot and moving on... unfortunately, can't retake since it's in another city. Luvsadog2

I was taking a gazillion shots of the same thing a few months ago -- still have to go thru my HD and delete everything but the keepers. Still learning, but having fun doing it. Thanks again, Flo.

I'm pretty comfortable with composition now. Something about that doorway - the colors, the textures - just called out to me, but I'll have to be more careful from now on to make sure I got a clean shot before moving onto the next thing that catches my eye, lol! Thanks again! Luvsadog2
