maybe moving the main subject off center would improve the composition.

you have a great eye for composition! i really like the composition here. for me, this pic has lots of ingredients of success: a killing smile, lively sparkels in the eyes and a gorgeous model! the only thing is the hair strands on the eye! otherwise, this is perfect!
keep up the good work, sam.

nice focus and depth of field. i like the way you composed the stem at a slant, but i think the composition could be better if you had rotated the camera anti-clockwise just enough to show a bit of the other flower's stem.
well done, sam.

lovely .. maybe you could minimise diversion of parallel lines by going further away! not sureyou could though.
very nice image though.
are you based in bahrain or did you take that image during a visit to bahrain?

a monopod is of a great assistance!
a tripod used as a monopod is a good way of saving money. mono-tripod is something that makes a husband proud of his wife ;)

hi sandy,
maybe you already know this:
1- shutter speed decides on the exposure time.
2- aperture size decides on amount of light to reach the film or sensor.
3- the correct exposure of a shot is a combination of both, shutter speed and aperture. you can get the same exposure by increasing one and reducing the other, as the higher the shutter speed the shorter the time the sensor is exposed to the light, and consequently the more light needed to recored the shot correctly.
generally, tripod aside, you need the highest possible shutter speed to minimize the risk of camera shake! as a rule of thumb, the shutter speed shouldn't be less than the reciprocal of the lens' focal length. for instance, if you're using a 400mm focal length lens, then you go for a minimum shutter speed of 1/400 sec. unless you're after a creative use of slow shutter speed.
personally, i'd go for a much higher speed if the situation allows!!
for this particular pic, you used an aperture of f/10 which gives a larger depth of field than any smaller f-stop at the same focal length. you haven't mentioned the exact focal length you used, however, looking at the image, you could go for a smaller f-stop (larger aperture size-more light-shallower DOF). as a result you would have needed to increase the speed of the shutter to compensate for the extra amount of light to get the correct exposure. this could be achieved easily using the Av (aperture priority exposure mode) on your D70. you choose the size of the aperture (e.g. f/6.5) and the camera chooses the corresponding shutter speed for the correct exposure. a little knowledge of the light metering systems is a must! you're camera booklet should have a brief explanation of them and their applications.
a high shutter speed and a tripod, and you have razor sharp images! provided that your focus is correct ;)
speaking for myself, i consider all these critiques i recieve or give, as OPINIONs which i may or may not agree with. this is, i believe, how you can progress and at the same time have your own stile!
by the way, i'm only beginner and have lots to learn and do.
keep clicking, sandy.
regrads,
ned

amazing lighting and pose!
the red goes well with the lighting as well!
well done, nessa!
only one tiny thing: because she's looking down a little cropping from the top would get rid of some of the hair -which is a bit distracting- and put more attention on her face.
hopefully you don't mind me altering your original shot:
