Some feedback, per your request in the forums. Your's did not come up for me in voting, btw.
Seems a little soft somehow. I'm not quite sure what it is. It does not appear focus was off, but its not sharp either. Looking at your shot info, I think it may have been the shutter speed of 1/25th second. Fast enough to not cause obvious blur, but just enough movement to dull the image a little. Was this handheld? Bumping up your ISO to 400 woudl have probably solved the problem. My Rebel XT does fairly well at 400, and I'm sure your D80 would perform even better at that setting. (My own FS entry was shot at ISO 200)
The other thing that struck me was the composition. The focal point that the eye is drawn to is the bridge, but it seems too centered top to bottom in the frame for my tastes.
Hope this helps to figure it out. |
