Thanks Sarge and Captain for taking the time to look. I may need to check and see if I have a problem with the screen on the pc because the one on the left is out of focus by my screen. I was thinking with a f/8 even if she was a couple inches off she should be sharp like her mom on the right.

From what I see it looks like I was using a 2.8 and she was just a tad to far back from her mom.

Thanks again

I was using the download and looking at the eyebrows of each person. Looks good. Depending on DOF will determine the rest of the shot while the eyes are in focus.

Sarge the eyes of the girl on the left are just not as tack Sharp as the one on the right. The one on the right is what the focus point was on and they are on the same plane, they both should be tack Sharp right or am I just being to picky---lol

Having problems with the focus points. Using single point focus and keeping people in same plane one will be clear the other will be slightly out of focus. If only one person no problems with focus but add one person and end up having the person with the focus point on clear and the other not just there. I have would like to know would it be better to use the zone focus points or am I doing something else wrong. Have included pic that can be downloaded

Help with right click menu in layers panel

jazzplayer wrote:

Sounds like you probably prefer the 'Flatten Image... (show quote)

You are right this is what I was trying to do, CS5 has flatten image at the bottom of the right click context menu and when CS6 came out they just put all the 3D stuff at the bottom of the menu. I was always clicking on the postcard which is now the boring one. I did however assign it to crtl-F which was currently for the last filter used shortcut,which I never remember what the last one I used anyways-- LOL

Thanks for the help on this,now I just have to remember that I created a shortcut and quite right clicking

20 min. Star trails

I like the star on the left that does not move and how the ones near that star move very little and they start moving more as they are futher out from that star. which I would think that to be the north star.

20 min. Star trails

This is my second attempt at star trails. This time I was out in the country with no city lights. Used bulb setting and left the shutter open for about 20 min. Thanks for looking and C&C welcome or you can post your own star trails.

4x6 prints on the fly...

50D will print 4x6 straight out of camera no cropping needed. Test this by taking shot , put in PS and do a crop to a 4x6 and the check image size and res. I have a 50D and they will print a 20x30 and 4x6 straight out of camera.
