^ You using the viewfinder or the screen to focus? I (never having used a nikon d40, althought i've played around with a d50 and d80) would use the viewfinder to focus.. that or if you are using the viewfinder maybe if you wear glasses/contacts or have poor vision, you might have trouble getting accurate focus and you just have to adjust the finder so you know that what you'll end up with rather than what you see...

That's just my immediate guess, but I'll think about and maybe someone else with have some other advice...

^Also what else do you have on manual? because thinks like the fstop and aswell as shutter speed will make your images blurly in varing ways depending on number things... i.e. if you have open up the lense (low fstop like f2. 8)

or if your shutterspeed is below 1/125 then either of those could be the culprit, you gotta explain the whole situation.

haha. i think thats why... i have glasses, and yeah i am looking through the viewfinder. i guess its my glasses making it blurry because its making my eye not quite on the viewfinder.

you should be able to adjust the viewfinder so its accurate at the distance your looking into it from with your glasses on.

I assume you know but thats not going to give you a great depth of feild, but I bet its the glasses because the subject should be well in focus just not whole lot else...

ebayologist - Thanks for the advice. I heard that lense tubes sometimes can blur the entire image a little bit because the light and such has father and lense to go through to get to the camera. Is this true?

Sleep doesn't exsist in my house
 
^ you have to adjust for the exposure.. maybe half an f stop or a full but no unless there is something wrong with the tube or lense something will be in focus..

As for the lens
flare are you saying I intentionally put that with PS? If so, then no its
the natural sunlight. I hate artificial lens flare, it looks so tacky.


No, I was pretty sure it was real. I didnt know if it was on purpose or not. my comment more a social commentary on alot of peoples artifical and real on purpose use of lens flare. Probably just needed lense hood and didn't have it with you but i've seen people who do that on purpose and it boggles my mind as to why...

I usually just comment on mostly the photos I like, even if my comments seem like criticisms. the photos I'm like eh... or not so much I usually just let be...

know I heavily PSed them but I can't help
it.


Yeah, mostly I just like to know what's Ps'd and whats real, not so much as criticising you for it... Jeff Wall is probably my favorite or one of my favorite photographers and significant part of his work is post production in photoshop so...

I think after get back from the gym in like an hour post some Jeff Wall, would give some insight to all of us. Cause he shoots film but he does alot of post production and I've got a few websites that explain alittle. The official photography post gotta be more than just answering questions and posting pictures. anyhow, until then..
