Re: First Portrait Pictures--C&C's please
Thanks everyonefor your helpful comments and suggestions.
A picture with the WBadjusted in DPPusing my brother in law's eye, as suggested, is below. His eyes were a little blood shot, which might have affected the result,as the wall behind him was a light yellow and he is "olive" skinned. But a big difference between the two photos. And the wall doesn't look too yellow in the original either. Overall, the photo below may be closer to reality.
I completely agree that the DOF is too shallow.Playing with a DOF calculator, it looks like I was working with 1 or 2 inches DOF.If I ever get in the habit of taking photos like this, I probably "have" toinvest in a 85 mm to 100 mm lens([
]) so I can take a few more steps back and get a reasonable DOF with the same framing.
Thanks again for your comments, I definitely learned a few things.
