Château du Barroux Photo

Photographer’s Note

Voici le château du Barroux. Construit durant le XII° siècle, il a été en partie détruit pendant la Révolution.
Ce n'est qu'en 1929 qu'il a été restauté.
J'ai voulu l'associer aux couleurs de l'automne sur cette image.

Though it may be nice to use the leaves as a frame, I'd like to see more of the castle. Another option here would be a longer depth of field. Even using f/9, the leaves are out of focus. If it was your intention to see more of this beautiful autumn colours, maybe you could try a closer aperture and increase ISO value to compensate (as I know your D80 may provide nice images in higher ISO sets), and also a slower speed (in 80mm it's not difficult to hold your camera in 1/150, for examplo).

Contrary to what has been said, I like the way you framed the castle with the leaves. The only element I would like to mention is that the building isn't as sharp as I would like it. I don't know if it is the haze or the lighting. If you would want to have the castle fuzzy in the background you would need to have the leaves perfectly sharp in the foreground.

Still a pretty good picture.
