Your lens is much better than mine-- lucky! You could try a faster shutter speed with 1.4 (you probably do already) and see if that will increase the sharpness of you? And of course there's always PS!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09954806592897337464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551650242422472428.post-44971760515206161872011-06-30T12:41:07.415-04:002011-06-30T12:41:07.415-04:00I have absolutely no idea what you are talking abo...I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.<br />Maybe because I take my pics with a NOKIA cel phone... however I am not only loving your pictures but the pattern in your skirt and bag !Lorenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16720997862417551402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551650242422472428.post-90410828830464583792011-06-30T12:04:41.724-04:002011-06-30T12:04:41.724-04:00Your clutch is so beautiful and I love how it comp...Your clutch is so beautiful and I love how it complements your outfit to a t!
