I don't know if the title would be the best to describe but I will try to explain my confusing the best I can.
The photo I will show you I was trying some different settings because of some previous shots kept coming up out of focus. Previous shots I used single point focus.
I am using a canon 70D and was set to use AI focus which will switch between one shot and AI servo.
for zone I was using ZoneAF this time. I have usually used single point but with a few out of focus shots I was trying this. for zone I have the center selected. And the last is the 19pt in which I have not tried yet.
for metering mode I have used evaluative metering as it seems to handle the most in any changes

Now the photo I had taken was using AI focus/ZoneAF/Evaluative metering at f8 / 1/160s / ISO 100 / 18-55@55mm
For some reason it seemed to focus on the furthers in the photo and the subjects are slightly out of focus and almost look like they copied for a composite with the hard edges they are showing.
Now I figure If I had shot at a lower "f" setting then there would of been more focus on us due to a shallow depth of field but I wanted to incorporate the old bridge.
Since I preview the shot on the camera it looked good but when I get it on the computer I see the concern. Should I of considered doing a single point focus so I would still get a good focus on the closer subject and yet still get good quality on the bridge?
I am really not sure and wanted to ask the experts :)

I will have to watch tv more as I am not sure where that is located. Actually I was on the news one day and they where in my front yard, I was interviewed about a power outage in my area :)

thats what I get for not paying attention. Most of the time that I have seen them have been at the court house but I am really not for sure where they normally go :/ I am sorry for my ignorance but could you narrow it down more for me please? I am going to give my self a headache trying to think where they normally shoot from.
