Nice first PP mate.

I know this might sound a bit anal (oo errr) but would have liked it straight.And i would of focused right on the front so it would have dropped off as you look further into the pic but maybe that's just me.....

Thanks Steve and Maureen

Due to the focal length (105mm)i had to shoot at, i think it is straight however due to the perspective it appears to be off centre. Its all subjective but i wanted the centre of the subject (the numbers) in focus, however take your points on board!

Shot it at higher Apertures as well but didnt look right when all in focus.
