[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 273694, member: 11881"] You asked for a bit of input. 1. Get further away from the wall. I can see blemishes on the wall and the last has a shadow. 2. Your focus seems a bit soft from either the focus mode or the shutter speed. The Exif data says auto focus face priority. I will admit that I am weak in knowledge on the shooting modes of any of my cameras I have because I shoot 90% manual and 10% shutter or aperture. With that said, I would have shot single focus (AF-S) point in manual mode and focused on his eye. 3. Tripod mount with VR off. If hand held kick the shutter speed up to 1/90 or greater. I know 1/90 isn't an option, but on that focal length with cropped sensor I would not shoot below 1/90. 4. It's a bit hot on HIS left side (third shot is hot on both sides). A thin white sheet (single layer not folded in half unless needed) draped in front of the window will help to allow the light through and soften it. Hope this helps. Not a bad start. [/QUOTE]
