Nicely done and I like the angle.

Nicely done Aammm & I really like the colouring of this shot. I would have liked a bit wider DOF say F8, but the shot does work anyhow. Goodun mate:-)

Thanks CJ and Henry for your comments. I think the subject contributed to the appearance of sharpness, level 4 in DPP looks fine in other pics.

I agree with CJ on Composition and DOF. I think you are right on the edge of over sharpening, but it really works with this photo. I think a 5 would have definitely been too much. Henry

Aam, I like your painted wall - the composition and shallow DOF are nice here. CJ

Thanks Brent. I was surprised by the sharpness too. Just yesterday I started to use sharpness 4 in DPP instead of 2-3 as I was advised. Actually people suggested 5 but I'm not a sharpness freak :).

I wouldn't want to rub my elbow up against that one. The crisp sharp shallow DOF really stands out in this one Aam.
