My photos are dull (Page 5): Got it. Good point made about stopping down too! The lens will most likely be sharper and it may reduce chromatic fringing too. Bob...

You are absolutely right. I was only trying to discuss the changes that could be made. With bright white and darker background an HDR may have worked better with multiple exposures. I was not trying to show I know better, just alternatives and thanks for letting me play. David

You need to let more light in.
either slow down the shutter speed, or you can widen the aperture.

Focus is spot on !

Don't worry about damaging your camera by changing settings,
it's not going to happen.

Just practice, have fun and shoot man shoot !!
