The picture is crisp and sharp. It looks good. I think that it's te white background that makes it too "bright". I'm a fan of darker pictures though. Since you shot it in auto mode, the ISO probably isn't the problem. What I'm seeing as noise on my phone could simply be the bokeh from being a macro photo.

Now that's a nice, easy explanation... prolly the first one that makes any sense. I have tons to learn, so little things like that are pretty important. Thanks!

No problem man. I'm happy to help others understand it a little better. It takes time and practice to fully grasp it all though. I really wish I had a DSLR again.
