Looking at the grass, sharpest focus seems to be just behind the subject. I feel that this is a result of shutter lag from the time the camera got focus on the dog until the shutter opened. Pretty cool looking dog, and he has an interesting name. Actually the timing worked out great to capture the shot with him completely in the air.

Day 1: Nettle-eye View

Nice POV, to show off the plant in the foreground. In the thumb, I was expecting to open a jungle or tropical island scene.
I have found for shots like this, to point the camera lens at the closest item, which would be the leaves in the foreground, then half push the shutter until it focuses, then rotate the camera to shooting position without releasing the shutter button. That way, the focus will be locked on the nearest object, so the foreground will be in sharper focus.

Nice rose shot. One of the things you can do easily to spice up flower close ups like this is to add a little spritz of water before shooting, so that the flower has droplets on it.
I have a rose bush with the same color roses in my front yard.

This has a nice "graphics" quality to it. Everyone else has already spotted the rest that I would be able to add. Good start for the P&S thread.

This is a very pretty composition, with wonderful detail, and color combinations in the flowers. I don't see any way to improve it.

The Brahmas #1 P&S

I instantly knew that this was in Florida. The oak with spanish moss, and the dog fennels give the location away. The light is excellent on the cows, and the mirror image pose is sweet too. Good overall shaprness too. Nice shot.

Excellent, and you still have the lightning bolt down the side of the hub. The POV accents the 5th blade in the center nicely too.
