Does the lens offer swings and tilts? Or Tilt only? ( relative to a landscape image configuration.) Mid range focus on the right worse than midrange on the left..... indicates maybe your lens was not "centered" and set for some amount of tilt.... which in this composition means swing... and therefore the focus planes are not where we expect them..... Although it certainly works for the foreground..... Is this just a case of focus distortion caused by the foreground focus being right ( which it is) , and the background wrong for the foreground focus planes.....? Sometimes swings and tilts make the focus just look weird.... Certainly a colorful shot.... nicely composed. Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net the first - the mid frame lack of focus puzzles me Fond regards, George > http://raflexions.com/11-11-2008/ > Bob Adler > Palo Alto, CA
