This is a remake of one of my first nature scenes; it's always so satisfying to look back and see how far I've come since then. All made in Blender, rendered with Cycles.
Let me know what you think!

Thanks, this is actually super useful feedback because I'm not much of a photographer myself. I used the default Blender 35mm film with I think a 35mm lens at F-stop 10.0. The scene used real-world scales
From what I could find online an F-stop from 8-16 seemed to be an appropriate range for those sorts of lenses, but would you have any other insights? Quite an easy thing to fix for sure but I'm definitely lacking knowledge here
Upon closer examination I see that the foreground is slightly out of focus. But, it looked crystal clear until I zoomed in. The f-stop and lens choices seem solid. Perhaps my feedback is entirely invalid.
Something is off and I'm not sure what. The best I can describe: "It's too perfect". I'm an amateur and have seemingly already gone wrong. A professional photographer would make better observations and have the correct semantics.
Wish I could be of more assistance.
