Re: This week's random NX100 fun

Thanks all. I agree, Bill: The NX100 is a great tool!

Jeff, I appreciate your candor. There are a couple (The landscape, the books, the fabric...) where the focal plane is a little shallow/different. I seem to always shoot landscapes with fuzzy foregrounds. I may grow out of it, or learn to love it. I feel like it puts you into the scene a bit, and find ones with long DoF can be a bit flat. (I'm probably doing it wrong... )

With the books, I liked how it subtly directs you to the books' spines.

In the fabric shot, I could have moved it a little toward the background. The idea with that shot was to have a seamless progression of focus from foreground, counterclockwise around the image to where the foreground/background meet. It worked pretty well, but might have contrasted better if the focal plane were a little further back.

If there were others, I'd be interested to hear which ones, and why. Thanks!
