I've never tried this, but found a cool sunflower field by my house and thought I would give it a shot using my daughter. Can I get some C&C on these please. Even if you don't like them, let me know and also why. I've got thick skin. Which ones do you like or not like? TIA

    No, honestly it never even crossed me mind. Does it look like I needed to?

    Let's just say I could tell it wasn't gelled. It's always good idea to do so to stick to one color of light when you can. For example the specular highlights on her nose, teeth, eyes whisper 5000k flash. perhaps a 1/2 or full CTO gel would have given it just a touch more even light.
