New to photography - caught this photo experimenting with new Tamron

70-300 lens and was pleased with the background.

Please rate/critique/offer any advice!

I am really new to dSLR and photography so please be kind! I took this

shot as part of a series at our local park to get familiar with my

Tamron 70-300 lens that I hadn't used much before. This is one of the

best of the batch that day.

The EXIF data will give you the technical stuff, but basically this

was shot - as were all the photos on this session - with no tripod, so

there is going to be some shake. I tried to be as steady as possible.

Well - hopefully not out for a duck, but constructive criticism very

welcome!

This is a really lovely photo. I don't have the technical knowledge of photography to comment on the set-up (a newbie, see!) - but visually, for me, this is as expressive and beautiful as the painting of Rothko. It reminds me a lot of his work. Nicely done ; )
