First 3 of your flower macro shots are great, very vivid color and well composed. but the rest of them could be more interesting if you crop them well. I also notice most of your pictures are not sharp, very soft. It works well with some of the shots , but not with all. Do you do it purposely or is it the camera?

Hi Sukla, yes i do agree some of the pics are not very sharp. The ones clicked with large aperture are definelty not sharp, and were meant to be that way. You will notice that Photographs clicked in bright light have come out much sharper and the once clicked using flash are much more sharper. Well that is the limitation of the camera I use. Sony H7, not the best one for sharp images, mostly because of the small sensor size may be.I tend to take pics keeping the white balance on cloudy so as to achive higher saturation levels and hnce manage to get more vivid colours, that also may indirectly contribute in the picture looking soft.

As far a cropping goes, I avoid using software to alter pics.
I use it for reducing the photograph size before uploading and to put the web address on the pic.
