Nice composition, the shot looks posed however focus seems to be soft at f/7.1. Were you using center focus?

Yes John, you are right. I was running after that small kid for so long but somehow I could not get him standing at one place. When I got him some people were standing behind him, what you can see in my shot. I kept f/ higher as I liked the layers of people standing behind him. I m just sharing what was there in my mind while taking this pic. N focus was yes center focus. I think except birding, I have never chance that setting. I m not so clear about using different focus.

Hi Tejal,

I asked about the focus because if it were in 3D tracking or similar mode it would explain the softness as the focusing mechanism would be searching for a target. At 1/125s you should still have been able to get the slightly mobile group in focus, perhaps the softness is due to camera shake.

[Tejal]

There was maximum possibilities of camera shake, as i get some seconds only to capture that kid. Perhaps I was not that prepared too for that shot. Focus, I think it was center focus only. 3D tracking ....no. I m very sure about it. So many things I dont know about camera & photography technicality . So, in giving reply, if I fail in providing you proper information, please bear with me .

Information received perfectly.

I love the composition of this one, Tejal...very nice...I like that naughty little boy too. His expression is priceless.

Also those boats in the background will also make a good shot one day with all the textures and peeling paint there.

I like the image Tejal, the young boy looks full of mischief just the way I like kids
I like the brown/grey ruggedness of the bridge contrasting with the colours in the image.
Very nice

Looking at this image in full screen size, everything seems sharply focused except the tyre and a couple of areas on the boy so I suspect there was a slight subject movement.

However, that is examining the image very critically; it is a good composition with sufficient colour and no over exposure.
