I was so excited, it was really the only thing I wanted but since we really don't spend a lot on each other for Christmas (unless it's something really special like this) I didn't expect it. I haven't had much time to experiment with it but looking forward to it.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11462135507379897869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629413949146506359.post-7859881857508251442010-01-20T22:55:42.630+02:002010-01-20T22:55:42.630+02:00I love that color.

I have seen her lenses this Christmas, but not through them.)<br />I therefore cannot say anything wise about the quality. I just like your photo for what it is. The softness in colors, the floating texture and intricate curves of God made creation.<br />Lovely.<br />( I actually have four similar seashells from Israel, brought to me by a lovely family friend years ago. They have these special orange stripes not known in Norway.<br />I shall have to fetch them from their hiding place in my special things drawer and maybe make a simple powershot picture.)<br />From FelisolFelisol https://www.blogger.com/profile/12240191154632603841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629413949146506359.post-18495625467837313102010-01-19T20:23:58.428+02:002010-01-19T20:23:58.428+02:00This reminds me of Belgium sea shell chocolate box...This reminds me of Belgium sea shell chocolate box for Christmas in Sam's Club :) I am so craving sugar now!Elliehttp://ellievellie.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629413949146506359.post-17800182085696858182010-01-19T20:18:39.922+02:002010-01-19T20:18:39.922+02:00I like the swirl inside too

I know its not what you wanted but I feel your frustration, I sat and shot this little section of an amazing sculpture over and over til I got it in focus just the way I wanted and its still not 'perfect'.

They're tricky beggars. Only thing I've found that seems to make any difference at all is to stop down to f/6.3 or smaller so you get at least a <i>little</i> depth of field. (Of course I don't know if that's your specific complaint or not... I'm just sayin'.)<br /><br />It's a cool shot in any case.
