    "It's okay, but I'm not really feeling it, Dawg," to quote the American Idol judge. I like the wide angle thing you almost have going and the color fo the helicopter, but the background and haphazard crop kinda kill it for me.

    Keep postin'.

    The composition here is tight for me, though I think if you had a little more breathing room it might work better. The shot is nice and sharp, and the DOF is well. The colors are good for a scan; so is the quality. Kudos on that.

    A few minor things, but not too shabby.

    So what is your favorite toy, the new lens, or the chopper? I don't mind the tight framing on this shot at all. It shows me enuf of the subject to know what it is and it's not your typical shot of a toy. I like that. What I don't like tho, is the people in the background. The foot of the person reading in the BG seems kind of odd to me, as do te knees on the right. Just my 2 pennies.

    Yeah I agree but we where all just hanging out and didn't think about the people in the back. I will try to recreat it better later. The chopper and lens make a good fun time.
