Sunset Picture Graining
      #807289 - 03/07/2009 19:46

Hi. New here and to photography so apologies if the question is a basic one.

I recently went on holiday and took some pictures of a sun set. The picture, I thought, looked great when previewing on the camera but now that I've downloaded them, the area around the sun looks grained like it's a low resolution picture. If I zoom in on the camera, all looks fine.

My camera is a Nikon D90 with the Std 18-105 lens. I don't have a filter fitted yet and took the picture with the 'landscape' setting rather than getting into the manual settings. I know the camera is fine as other pictures are fantastic.

Did I use the wrong setting on the camera? The picture was taken on the 'fine' setting, JPEG, 1/1000 at f/13 & iso 200.

Any advice would be good or pointers where I can get the most out of my camera would be great.

Thanks.

Not sure how to upload a photo but try this link:

The graining is clear around the sun colour. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks
