A bit of fill-flash would improve things there.
When the sun is high in the sky, or when it's impractical to get it directly onto your face then a bit of fill-flash will get rid of those shadows.
Your flash isn't just for when it's dark out

Thanks for the reply. I'll definately start playing with the iso. The aperture only reaches f8 on the G11. From what I've read the G11 isn't the best of camera for the 'blurred background' look, I'm asuming because of the lower aperture available? I'm happy with the little blur on my pic though. I can't find anything in the manual on continuous focusing. I'm a beginner at most with photography, so I'm trying to learn when I can.

ben its not too bad, but try setting your iso your self and maybe step out of auto mode and into manual
sunny days iso 100- 200 and set aperture to say f11 this should give you a fairly good D O F so a sharper shot
on overcast days try upping iso to 400
will the g 11 do continuous focus? if so maybe try setting that
just try it out practice makes perfect

Guys, need a little camera advice or suggestions for improvements. I hope it's OK to post this here and not in general discussion.
This is a self take from today
Now for you guys I'm sure this is pretty shocking, but for me I'm relatively happy with it but much can be proved upon I'm sure.
What adjustments could I make to the camera (G11) to improve on this for future self takes? The picture was taken on aperture priority, auto ISO and white balance and on built in timer. The light levels were very high when taking.
I'm guessing the slight grain or lack of 'crispness' could be a slight focusing issue on the timer (15 second delay, 5 shot burst)? This was the better of the bunch.
And yes a smile wouldn't go a miss
Thanks for any help
Ben
