I think it is not out of focus, perhaps just a little soft IMHO
try photobucket.com.. Photoshop sometimes could confuse us in determining its sharp or not the images
usually, after I edited the picture and save it, I will try to see it from "the picture viewer" (windows program) to make sure the picture has correctly edited, I mean sharp or not..
just my two perak..

well ok, but the windows viewer is not colour managed and it does not proportionally view the image. Photoshop is probably the best application to determine image sharpness especially when using the ctrl plus and ctrl minus short cuts to zoom in and out. I think my last image appears soft because i used the save to web feature which degraded it a bit. I dont know what the forum restrictions are for images sizes so i minimised it quite a bit

My wife use to be a wedding photograher (and definitely more than that!) in Jakarta. She said that she can't do it in Samarinda as people here don't recognize/like/want her artistic way to do.

She just finish the pre-wedding pic of her sister that will get married in 2 week. I will see if I can find some pic of it...

Hi all, i'm a newbie in photography (like VERY new) and very open to any suggestions and critics. This is one of my shots

[Hombre de Maiz]

The shot could have used a bit of a polarizer. If there was interesting stuff at the bottom of the pond, it could have possible stood a lot of polarization.

[srikandi]

I wasn't using any filter (even uv filter as one of my friends broke it ). And no, there was no interesting stuff at the bottom of the pond. Just algae and moss..
what's exactly the polarizer do?

[Hombre de Maiz]

Algea and moss can be insteresting and colorful...




A polarizing filter reduces or eliminates glare and reflections (and saturate colors). Here's an example (cpl refers to circular polarizer):



I bit of polarizer could have made the fish stand in sharper contrast. Just a thought.

ps. What do you need an UV filter for?
