Some shots I took today at the annual parade. They're "as-is", as I have just uploaded them to the pc, and will make adjustments later. C & C welcome.

Hi Stephen, thanks for posting these. They are all potentially very good, but something does strike me about them. The focus is a little off on all of them; I wonder whether you have a slight camera or lens issue? It's easiest to see on the first one; take a look at the item worn around the lady's neck and you will see that the point of focus is somewhere around her left shoulder, so it is 'back focussed' quite a lot. The others look similar although it's harder to tell as there are no easy points of reference to see.

What camera / lens were they shot with? It would be worth trying to calibrate the lens to the camera and this would probably improve things a lot.

I hope this is helpful.

Regards

David - my eyes are a bit wonky at the best of times, so it was hard to tell through the viewfinder. I'll try running it through DXO Optics Pro, and see if that will help in any way. Thanks for the feedback though!
