[QUOTE="N_Addy, post: 67737, member: 9985"] I agree with a bit higher ISO. Your D5100 can handle it. My D80 is notorious for noise at even mildly high ISOs (basically anything over 160). It looks pretty good to me. I agree with what others have said regarding composition but that's secondary to getting the exposure down pat. My only other thought is that it looks over-sharpened to my eye. Here are the LR3 settings I used on the shot in my other thread. I'm not suggesting the exact same settings will work for your shot but maybe they'll give you some rough guidelines. Sorry I can't give you the equivalents in LR4. I can't use it yet since I'm still running XP.
