My Hubby hates having his picture taken so about the only way I get a pic of him is if he doesn't notice me. I love this pics,it completely captures my hubby and son,if they aren't hooked to some type of electronic device 24/7 they will die.

The first is straight out of the camera:
DSCF0015

Exposure: 0.002 sec (1/500)
Aperture: f/7.1
Focal Length: 12.6 mm
ISO Speed: 400

Then I used PSP to put more of the focus on just hubby and son:

DSCF0015blur

Hubby is better at pic editing,but I gave it my best shot.

comments? Suggestions?

I like the artificial DOF you put in. Maybe take a little negative space from the right side.

Overall I like what you got I would just crop the pic to remove the desktops front a bit and job done ... I know the feeling about partners my other half will not let me take pics of her lol ! I have one I treasure but she hates as was caught whilst she was enjoying the breeze by the lake all the rest are blurs moving out of shot lol.. nice work

I agree with Quo Fan. But i was looking at your EXIF and if you wanted it like this SOOC, you could've changed the aperture to f/5.6 to keep them in focus and lowered your ISO to 100 to keep the same exposure and it would eliminate any noise (though I don't see any in the pic above). FTW.

Thanks I have been trying to figure out how to do the focus thing with the camera but I haven't quite got it yet this is my first camera that is not totally point and shoot.
