    some fruit

    If any one her knows my work at all, they would know that this isn't my style. But i was sitting at the table with my nephew, there was good lighting, i had a camera. so i figured i'd try taking pictures of fruit. i took about 20 differents shots, playing with dof, comp, all that stuff. these are the two best that i came up with. I'd like to hear some comments, as i said, this isn't my style.

    I like the first one better only because that's not the nicest part of the banana bunch. Too bad they weren't a bit more ripe. I think that bright yellow would have looked really nice with the orange.

    fruit is hard to shoot under natural light, and thats the reason most people light it artificially. have you tried shooting with a smaller aperture to get more in focus, since it seems like you would want to see all the fruit?

    i might try that, if i ever get around to it. I did want it like this though, with the shallow dof.

    I like the first image. I can't ever remember seeing an image with an OOF object in front of an in focus object that I liked.
