^^ At Wright town stadium (officially called pandit ravi shankar shukl stadium) in occasion of independence day..
Pappu,
Interesting use of lines, just a small suggestion though, a fg blur, if not managed properly can be distracting. Since there's no subject in the frame to lock the eyes on, they usually set on the OOF fg and hence cause a bit of uneasiness. I know the photo demonstrates the processing, but I'd prefer that happening on an awesome image
. Hope you take it in the right spirit.

. Hope you take it in the right spirit.^^ ok i had to read that twice over to understand 
but what I catch from that is that I should have had all of it in focus yes?
I am a focus n00b to be honest, dont know how to get it right
I've read a lot bout it, F8/focus to infinity and whatever, but i cant do it right. Any tips for the same? I dont know how to hit infinite focus manually, coz the lens focus ring rotates beyond that as well.

Lol, sorry my bad. I wasn't too clear. As a rule (which can be broken, depending on what you're trying to convey), a foreground out of focus is avoided. Eyes like to move in the frame from one focus point to the out of focus areas and then out of frame. A frame consists of Foreground, Subject and Background. In the above frame, the use of lines is nice, but it doesn't lead my eyes to a prominent subject and so my eyes come back to the start of the line which is in the foreground and is blurred. That kinda gives me a uncomfortable feeling is what I wanted to state
. Hope I was clear this time around. Aces170 said:
_pappu_ said:the focus point doesnot change
But you can manage to get sharper edges on the clouds for sure
Yep as Pappu suggested, focus point won't change. PP can be used only to enhance it
.Here's a shot from me where I broke the fg blur rule, not the best of the shots, just to give an idea..

Ha ha ! I am glad no one has pointed out that I am holding the camera and lens incorrectly.gaganjain said:Nice shot Aces170
Brendon post the pic u took at that time...heeee
ashvarybabul where was that shot taken in Jabalpur ?
Posting 3 snaps from the same photo shoot
Sahil (Aces170) :bleh:
All the snaps were taken with a 85mm f1.4 Rokinon manual focus lens that I got for 6k from payne.

^^ Thats because you have not used a pure MF lens. You have 3 AF lenses where the focus ring is an afterthought with such lenses.
A manual focus lens focusing ring is much bigger and more importantly a much more precise. Also since its a large aperture everything is out of focus and your subject kinda 'pops' into focus.
