Hi,
This is my first post to DPS. I am a beginner and hungry for knowledge. This is one of my first photos. Is it too simple? Or too busy? Please give me your opinions!



CANON EOS SLR 3000
35MM-80MM

nice picture, cute subject
It is very grainy for ISO 100, but I think you are shooting film from the look of your camera model?
I think it could be a bit sharper focus though. Maybe a smaller DoF would be good, with arm and face in focus and rest out of DoF?

Yes, It was shot with a film SLR. Could that be the reason why it appairs grainy? I get what your saying about DOF. I can visualize it, and Ill remember that when im shooting next. Thanks =) Apprecaite the thoughts!

The skulls seem to distract from an already very pink picture. I might remove it.
