Good job and I like the way you focused...I like it! Good job and I like the way you focused on that circular movement of the sand. There's movement in that focal you made. As for the colors not showing up in your pics, if you're using a digital camera see if there's a button labled WB, this is the white balance. Go ahead and press it and see if it gives you a pictoral choice of lighting (a sun for outside, a "house" showing shade, etc.) or if it says the type. For inside, you want the one indicating either florescent or what they call tungsten. If you have regular bulbs in your house, ok the tungsten setting (same if you have florescent). This usually counters the "yellow" tone of most indoor lighting. Play with it a bit when you have time, just don't forget to reset it to "normal" or "outdoor" lightig for when you're back outside. If you don't have the WB on your digital, or you used your iPhone (like I did), go to picmonkey.com and play around there. They have some apps that will let you change the lighting/color tone a bit until you get what looks right to you. The nice part about picmonkey is they don't store your pics on their site, they save right back to your computer.
