get closer try live focus, manual, and check results.

Let me get this straight. You want the same people that took a monopoly, The US Postal Service, & turned it into a multi billion dollar a year loser, you want the people that have spent every excess dollar of social security collected until they have turned it into a financial nightmare, and throw in Medicare and those billions of dollars year in losses, please tell me you are not that STUPID to think they are not going to ruin & bankrupt the US Healthcare System with Obamacare.

Have none of those problems, use it every day. Try reinstalling it.

Ralloh, looks great. I did about 5 versions of that shot, some very dramatic & others like your version. Usually take 5 or 7 bracketed shots to play with depending on the lighting & the subject. This was a hand held 2 shot. Again great job.

Its called HDR for a reason, Just submitted one of several processed versions of that shot. Some very natural, some more dramatic. The finished process is always reflective of the processor. UP-2-IT, it is not "chromatic aberration" it is called "tone mapping" it's done in the software not in the camera. If you understood HDR, you would have known that the 2nd shot was unprocessed, and just one of the downloaded required exposures. So no "fluffy clouds" needed. Use the UHH search option for HDR. You'll find it very informative.

this was one of the the exposures. should have sent them together. Hope this helps. Photomatix Pro 4 very easy to work with.

this was 2 shots processed in Photomatix Pro 4

Automatic kind of equals best average settings very good but never exact. I shoot Manual 90 percent of the time, Av & Tv the other ten percent. You will learn more from your mistakes shooting manual, you learn nothing from shooting on automatic.

Upgraded from a T2i to a 5D Mark III. Great Af, great ISO, in camera HDR processing, HD Video. Rent one for a week you won't regret it.

Got him or her in the backyard

Download Google Earth. Type in Dublin Ireland. When you get there you can traverse the whole Ireland or travel the highways from your computer. Walk the streets of Dublin. Great way to plan a trip or to scout your itinerary. Not sure why 2 days in Westport. Small quaint town you can see in 3-4 hours. Take a light rain poncho. Its a wet Country.

This is the same idiot that referred to NYCity as Hymietown. A Jewish slur. His forced apology stated, If I offended anyone I apologize.
He should have spent more time teaching his son not to steal

He and Al Sharpton, two of the most Racist, do nothings, this Country has to offer.

The liberal press always offers them a platform, from which, to hurl their racist remarks.

shot this in my backyard canon 70 200 with a 2x, used live view for focus. F7.1 iso 100 1/125sec WB white light

Wow

Sitting just next to the feeder with my remote in my hand trying to time the shot. Got about 5 shots over a 3 hour period.
