    The hard part i had is that the pics just looked out of focus when i put the zoom at 100%. At 50% it didn't look too bad, just not as clear as i had hoped. I'll have to pull it into photoshop and do some editing and see if an can get it cleared up.

    You bored kid? Need something to do? I got a driveway full of snow that needs to be shoveled. :D

    Were you on autofocus or manual?

    autofocus, the hard part is it looks pretty good on the camera display after i take the picture. Just when i pull it off and put it on the computer it looks kinda blurry/ not as sharp as i was hoping for. I'm pretty sure it has to do with not enough light.

    I'm not that bored... And since you guys are on the topic of pictures. I am building a new website for my seasoning and was wondering what it would cost me to get the online publishing rights to a few of your pics? If you have any interest at all to letting them go.

    I'm going to guess that the autofocus was confused by the glare of the tree lights. Same conditions with manual focus probably would have turned out better.

    It'll cost you shoveling my driveway for the winter :D

    Which ones? You been on my photobucket?

    I have not... I don't even have the framework done yet. So I am not rushing, but I would like to keep the Montana theme going through my website and you take much more and better photos than myself. So I figured I would ask :notsure:

    The glare gives you really bright areas with no definite shapes to focus on and really dark shadowy areas with the same problem so the camera can't find anything to focus on. Check your metering mode too.

    I found that adding the flash really helped to light up the dogs in front of the tree as well as light up the rest of the tree.

    I find that the flash is often times to have to harsh a light, wish I had the money for a pro flash.

    Yes, that is true. The built in flash is very harsh depending on what i'm shooting.

    I like babysitting my friends' two little guys just because I get to color and play in the sandbox and not look like an idiot while doing so :eek:
