    Baby on the beach

    Caught this one with a Minolta Maxxum 5 (film) with my 75-300mm. I'm quite an amateur, just looking for feedback.

    The lady walking the dog is very distracting and takes away attention from your subject. I think you could also lose some of the out of focus foreground. Always try and elliminate as many distractions in the background as possible on shots like this. You probably could clone the lady out and improve the picture.

    I agree with Greg. Could have been a great shot if not for distracting items.
    Keep Shooting!
