Alex, what are you using to take the photos? Is the camera on a tri-pod?

Depending on your lens, you may have to back out a bit in order to get a better focus.

Alex, please go back and reduce the size of those photos to something around 500X500 pixels to meet the board's graphics size guidelines. Usually, reducing a graphic will improve the resolution, and it will get a bit clearer.

Thanks, Alex!
