Hello Umar!

This picture has a lot of potential, I like the vertical composition where the main subject occupies the lower 2/3 of the frame, and I like the tall trees in the BG.

But there is something that I don't understand. Your Olmpus C750UZ is an excellent camera with a 4,2 megapixels resolution and a 10x optical zoom lens.

When I look at your picutres, pixels seems to be gigantic for such a quality camera. Are you using the full potential of your camera?

Wich resolution (number of pixels) do you set your camera when you take your picture?

Do you use Digital Zoom ? (with a 10x zoom lens you shouldn't. digital zoom should never be used, only optical zoom)

Do you frame you picture as much as possible in your camera while you take the picture?
Or do you crop it a lot in you picture software?

My purpose is not to critique this picture but to help you to find out how to get the best result you can get from your camera. This camera can do a lot better than I see here.
