Hi Guys

Just starting out in photography and I lent over and caught this shot of my sons eye sitting in the car when we were on a camping trip.

It was taken on a Pentax ISD ds and i think the setting were
f8.0
1/45sec
iso 200

The sun through the window left the eye a natural gold of the reflective sun, was it effective or should there be greater contrast from the shadows, was the depth of field appropriate?

Not really sure what I am talking about but any feedback you can provide will be appreciated.

Thanks again for your time

Phil

Very nice. The focus seems to be spot-on the eye, which I really like. I think that your depth of field is just right -- perhaps crop out a bit from the bottom right, where the blurred nose is a little distracting. In fact, in general, I find the shadows don't add much and just take away from the eye.

Overall, it's a cool photo. Good job!

sharp eye details with center focus. it would be very nice to see the finest details by zooming into the eye. pls do post the original pic as well so we all could enjoy see it in detail.

warm wishes.
