...titles? What is this I don't even
It was pretty sunny earlier, so I got to take my new camera out and have a bit of fun with it. It was pretty cool, I'm starting to understand the concepts and practice of manipulating aperture, shutter speed and exposure.
I've always wanted to take a photo somewhat like this, but my P&S obviously just couldn't get a DoF like the DSLR can, so I'm quite excited to experiment with things like what you see above.
Anyway, it's a bit of fun (I am well aware of how cliché these shots are), not much more, but do let me know what you think.
Edit: "Shutter Speed:1717986/2147483628 second"
I don't know what that's about.
I'm also quite sick of the quality reduction of jpegs on dA.
Dunno how to fix that.

Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactThis is a great photo! I can tell you experimented and put a lot of thought into the photo, overall. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/n…" width="15" height="15" alt="
" title="Nod"/>One of the first things I noticed was how well the flowers contrast with the background. The white stands out beautifully, to bring our attention to the flowers more quickly. I also like the choice of a very simple background, to not distract the viewer's attention.
I think the shallow DoF is great for this photo, it puts only the foreground in focus and certainly adds a lot of depth to the piece. I wish the brown leaf on the left wasn't also in focus, but that's probably not something you'd intended..
Technically, I don't think this photo is as strong as some of your others. The flowers are overexposed which loses a lot of detail overall. There is also quite a bit of noise/grain in the photo, which I don't know where it came from since your ISO is 100. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="19" height="19" alt="
" title="Shrug"/>The composition bugs me as well. I think you could've shifted the camera down and possibly zoomed out just a tad a as well.
Great work though, I'll be sure to take a look at the rest of your gallery! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="
