[QUOTE="Stoshowicz, post: 424611, member: 31397"] I don't know whats right as far as pixel count goes, but the character of the subject and its presentation , made it a difficult call for me , certain parts are softer than others and I have no real expectation that any particular edge is supposed to be a hard line , or a rounded one. Since the grain of the wood might APPROPRIATELY be a bit rounded and soft , or the grain could be unintentionally soft. Ordinarily, twine is a good choice but it wasn't at the center of the pic. Id be curious to see your results with either an insect or a feather, which have finer details which one can note if its clearly seen or not. Im thinking I am not saying this clearly ,, but similarly if you took a photo of a painting, I wouldn't really know if the brush strokes were supposed to be soft or if they were being artificially made to look soft. Yes you may still can get an answer which looked crisper, but seeing that you have a fairly non-unanimous result.. that [U]could[/U] be a result influenced by this subject matter. I'm thinking that normally photosubjects are not flat , and normally all portions are not really in the same plane of focus even if it [U]is[/U] flat -since that plane is curved. With all portions , not actually equally in focus , one may be influenced to perceive sharpness differently. Like if I blur a background , my bird will look sharper- even though its not. [/QUOTE]
