This one had a lot of potential but it didnt turn out as good as i had hoped. Any ideas? The DOF was a bit off?

Interesting mix of shots here.

#1 - I like this one, I think the DOF is good, however the wall / corner or whatever is a tad distracting (the vertical line), had you been able to compose it from a slightly different angle it may have helped

#2 - This one looks good, I wouldn't suggest anything different

#3 - Really like this close crop and finer detail in the face of the idol

#4 - Needs more DOF in my opionion, and perhaps a slightly different composition

#5 - Interesting, not sure if you could get enough DOF to bring this one all in focus, but I kind of like the idea but would of maybe tryed the head in focus, and had the hands OOF.

Thanks Craig

Yeah #5 was a quandry for me. Those arms were going everywhere.

You are right on the money regarding #1, that line is a little distracting. Shame.

Thanks for taking the time to critique them all for me mate!
