Really nice images. That dog has a massive tongue!!
I think the last one is my favorite of the whole set, but really a wonder set all around.

Love 6 & 7. With tighter cropping and 6 is screaming for some HDR treatment. That would be a prize winner.

Thanks Hackbone. I only have the one shot on #6 so I don't know how to do the HDR treatment.

Beautiful granddaughter- great set! Loved the way you ended them with the water shots! Fantastic!

7 and 8, VERY nice. Good series all around.

#2 looks like a clothing ad in one of my daughters magazines. #7 is striking.

#7 is GORGEOUS!

7 is just great. Love the expression. Don't like the crop putting her dead center though.

Your granddaughter is beautiful and makes a great model. While I really like all of the the next to the last one really reaches out and grabs me. The water made a great background and you nailed the focus on that one. A tighter crop might make it even better.

Thank you for sharing these shots

Thanks Brewster. I really like 7 also. I'm not sure on the processing of 8 though.

Thank you very much Paintguy. 2 sort of reminded me of a catalog also.

Thanks Mike. I could crop 7 differently.

Thanks rhondavid. Cropping 7 differently seems to be a popular vote.

Maybe try a 1:1 crop and leave her in the center? Would need to be a much tighter crop though.

The sensual water shots, being so young, and your grand daughter to boot are a little creepy

Brewster

ladytx - What don't you like about the processing in 8?
Just wondering.

I guess sensual is in the eye of the beholder because I personally don't see anything sensual about a girl messing around in the lake. Especially when she hopped in their fully clothed not even a swimming suit.

It just seems like it is heading somewhere but not quite there. Just me I guess. I put it up to see what others thought. Glad you like it. Think I'm in a rut and need to try some new things ...
