    Great set....
    Hi Matty,

    Very cute set of pictures there, and I'm sure you've been told that #2 is priceless. Do you mind sharing your setup as to lighting and lens?

    Cheers,
    Kevin K.

    Thanx Kevin!
    Sure - couldn't be more simple! I armed my 10D with the Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 II, put Elliot flat on a black sheet spread out on our bed, whitdrawled the curtains and let the window take care of the lighting. That's all there was to it!

    [f/1.8, 1/125, ISO 400, ambient light, shot in RAW.]

    Stay Tuned / Matty

    Hi Matty,


    Lovely presentation of your cutie. I especially like the second one because of the great play with depth of field.

    Beautiful shots, Mattias! :):

    I think your lighting, and the capture of your kid's eyes, is just perfect! The conversion is also beautiful, I love the tones you achieved here!

    Thanks so much for sharing!
    Take care!

    Thank you, Thiago!

    Nothing beats natural light, don't ya say? I've been using flash way to much, gives all images a stereotype, flat look.
