Sorry, but this image is out of focus. The point of focus appears to be in the branches several inches behind the ornament.
The photo is also over-enlarged and pixelated.
Nice idea, but you need check the image before you post it.
very pixelated, out of focus just basically a poor shot - the flash is too bright, and your composition is extrememly poor here with a static center placing of subject
Poor post processing... Don't rely on your flash that would be the cause of the big glare spot in the center. The focus is in the hole at the middle of the right edge.
Image contains some pixelation - maybe too much compression or taken on too small resolution?
Even more importantly, the centre of interest (the ball) is out of focus while some of the leaves in the right of the photo are in focus - so there is competition for attention. If the ball was inside your minimum focus length, then maybe you should have moved back a bit and then cropped? Or alternatively, deliberately made the entire image out of focus (e.g. by focusing on infinity) which would make the leaves very blurry and let the coloured shapes dominate?
Oh dear. It's a shame it's not in focus and the image looks a little pixelated. People will be really hard on you about that and some of them can be pretty mean (trust me I KNOW on this. I don't remember if I'm anonymous or not. If I'm not, check out the 'mantis' image in my profile. oh the beating I took.). Don't let them make you give up. Keep trying. This shot had a lot of potential.
If you got this camera for christmas, i would consider getting your money back and investing in something a bit better. The pixaltion in this image hurts this photo drastically. This is a hardware or software problem, and not represntation of you as a photographer.
