    Thanks, Scott. As genuine a photo as I have ever taken.

    I LOVE number two. Really captured great emotion here. I'm usually not a fan of overdoing noise reduction (looks like these were shot at a high ISO), but it fits here. Kind of feels like I'm looking at an oil painting. Good work thumb.gif

    Love 'em both - what wonderful family pictures!! And boy oh boy but your young man has seriously grown/matured since the last shots I saw - you've definitely got another teenager on your hands now!!!

    Thanks, Charles. These were shot at f4.5, 1/40 at ISO 3200. I've taken this shot in years past at wider stops and missed the focus on one of the three kids. I stop down a bit now using the 85mm, f1.4

    Thanks, these were shot at ISO 3200. No NR applied at all. I think the slow SS and glow from the candles is giving that soft look.

    Mitch, lights will flare like that at wider f stops. Try it again at F 11 or even 16 and see what happens. Yes long shutter times but the kids should be able to hold reasonably still for three or four secs. Try it out on the lights first to get the exposure and ask the kids to step in.
