Am facing the same prob with my camera. Focus on background, ayupan blur. Focus on ayupan, background blur :( if any camera experts can advise

Yes, I know about that problem.. There is only professional camera that can fix the problem !
But is ok ! We can see which ayupan is on the picture and that's the most important !

Several reserved ayupan are still missing and there are just few days left to participate !

Ayupan used : 31/176

I'll take the pic on friday for sure (it's the only day I have enough free time to go take the picture at some place nice at the sunset).

I'll also try to bring with me more ayupans that are not on the list so less will be missing :)

Try to not put the ayupan too near to the camera. It's better to have it a little far from it and zoom a bit if needed.

The selective focus effect happen (with many other facts) when the object is near to the camera and the background is far.

If you have a reflex and can control the diaphragm, close it as much as you can (biggest number)


I have to take my picture, I know!! I wasn't at home these days :headache

Thank you both !

I can't wait to see your pictures !

To everyone who participate to the project :

What do you think about adding your name on your picture ? Do you like this idea ?
Tell me if you want me to or not !

Real name or AHS name?

I was thinking about real name but if you prefer it could be AHS name or @twitter

I prefer having no name added at all. It's about the countries around the world, not the persons who took the photo. ^^

I think it's better without the names so the pics will look more clean...

i think just country is good enough :D

Just sent mine!

I told you in the e-mail, but I'll write here again. I also think it's better without names, just the countries ^^

Thank you for everything!

Sent my picture today :) It's a bit blurred, but I hope it's ok...

Tomorrow I'm going out with some friends, I can see if maybe I can take a better picture with a different ayupan...

I get your pics ! Thank you !

I get your points about the names... so I will let the pics with just the country ^^

I'll take my pic today ~ Hopefully the weather will stay good just like it is right now. Because it's been quite gloomy the past few days.

I've sent the photo ~

Thank you !

The deadline is today !
There are still some ayupan missing !

I've just send my pic, not as nice as I wished it was, I took it some time ago, I wanted to make a better one so I took my Ayupan for a mountain trip with me and I lost it, it was in my glasses case, I must have dropped it, my only Ayupan, lol.
