Also, this picture would have also been better if it was not slanted and if it was cropped to only fit the table. http://www.flickr.com/photos/thrumyeyeslnicole/5397357104/in/photostream In this second photo the diagnosis is that the photo is too wide. Also, I think it would look better if I would have zoomed in on the background across the water to portsmouth. I think it also would have been more intresting if I could have moved over to get some of the the building on the right out of the shot. http://www.flickr.com/photos/thrumyeyeslnicole/5397362234/in/photostream In this final picture the diagnosis is that the photo is out of focus because the subject is moving and talking. Orginally I thought that having half of the subjects face would make a more intersting photo but it turned out not to be that way. I think to fix the problem I would re-take this photo and ask the chef to stand still and make sure I had his entire face in the shot. If I had control of the apeture on my camera I would also like to make the food in front of him in focus and leave him out of focus but not moving just to see if it would make a good photograph and I would see if it added anything by making this photo in black and white.
