Well it can definitely become an obsession.

Out of focus. It just looks like a random blurry photo :s

For me, I couldnt say. Theres nothing I see as a point of interest.

What was interesting about it for you?

you don't get it, I mean what technically should I have changed for this shot not to be oof

And about what is interesting about it for me is the atmosphere which looks quite ... dark and almost dangerous. (I don't really find any adjective in English to describe that feeling)

Err, focus on something? D: The photo is not in focus, its blurry. I dont really understand the confusion.

Eye of the beholder, I guess. I feel like youre getting somewhat defensive, all I can give you is my honest opinion and nothing more.

Okay, but in fact the camera is on autofocus mode .. should I switch it to manual focus mode? The confusion comes from the fact that I don't master photography ^^.

I'm not getting any defensive at all, I'm struggling to express myself in english that's all. So please don't be offended or whatever :D I'm here to learn.

What camera do you have? For that sort of setting I would, theres so much in the picture that the camera is probably too confused about where to focus.

Ah ok, sorry then haha. I guess Im just used to people getting uber defensive over cnc, but thats because of some other forums that Ive been on. Gotta get out of that mindset :lol:

Manually focus instead of auto focus. Also not just because of the setting, but because youre shooting at night. Your camera isnt gonna know where to focus.

Well just keep going out and taking random photos of everything, thats what I did when I started out ^^

Have you tried shooting fully manual yet?

E: Lol Ive heard that a lot :lol:
