Default Berries

Berries

Nikon D5000
50mm Nikkor reversed
1/180s
(other exposures unknown)

How do you like my composition? Do you like the colors/depth of field the way they are?

Thanks

Its not a bad shot,...but the thing that gets me is the brightness of it. like i have to squit a lil to look at it. if you could up the contrast a lil and touch up the saturation just a tad. also it seems the top of the berries are in focus but theres weird lil spots around the center that look out of focus. maybe eliminate some of the empty space to the left of ur subject. the empty space there wants to draw my eye to it, instead of the berry cluster.

Thanks for the feedback,

This is the JPEG version of my picture, the Nikon format NEF is exactly how you like it, boosted contrast and a bit darker. I should crop it a bit though as you suggested.
