A great capture Liz. You may want to set your aperature (Fstop) number higher. This seems to be a tad overexposed which means it is too light and loses detail and vivid colors when this happens. Be sure to try different settings outside before taking an important shot so that you find what works best. If you set your F stop number too high it will slow down your shutter speed too much and you will get blurry shots. Things like this are best learned thru trial and error....I'm still learning myself! #5799723

Thanks May!

Hi Aimee. Thanks for the advice, I usually shoot in manual mode, but I'm taking a course here, so I couldn't mess with the controls in this lesson. It was to shoot something in portrait mode. And usually when I goof up, I photoshop it. LOL! OK that's cheating. :) #5799733
