Hi Scott... welcome to the merry-go-round. Grab a brass ring when ever you can. :welcomeclan :welcomeclan :welcomeclan

I love the portrait on the first one. A tip I have picked up that seems to work is to focus on the eyes. Even after the fact you might try sharpening just the eyes and dodge in the catchlights. A sharp looking eye gives the whole image the impression it is tack sharp.

:welcomeclan The pictures you posted, you have the right concept, just need to watch out for some things. The puppy, the whole image looks blurry, maybe due to low lighting. I like your flower picture. :thumbsup:
