    I love 1 & 2. One thing to think about is that the snow acted as an awesome reflector for you in quite a few of these, and did GREAT things for her skintones, without any of the harshness even a soft flash might add. Food for thought to add a ground reflector when you're shooting?

    Really good stuff MR!

    Cindy helps, but your skills are really developing to the point where I'm starting to be glad you don't live anywhere near me! :D

    Thanks all.

    Alex, I give you and Hack credit. I can never pick a favorite from a Cyndi shoot.

    Diva, I'm writing that one down about the ground reflector. Just ordered a 42" 5 - in - 1 reflector yesterday as a matter of fact. I learned to use the snow last year and we're almost back to my outdoor season. YAYYYY

    Bryce, thanks but NO WAY could I match that artwork you do. Cyndi makes me look way better than I am. Laughing.gif

    I will never shoot in the snow as well as you do. In fact I might ave to drive a ways to get enough. We get some every year but it is only every 5 to ten years that we get enought to do a great shoot like this. I agree 4 and 8 are the best. I also think the others while close are not as strong. Watch for her hair sticking to the hood too.

    If I had to pick 4 is my favorite critically and 2 is my actual favorite. Most of them are pretty much the same.
    No real stinkers in the bunch, overall a nice set.

    Thanks Tin.

    Zoomer, # 4 seems to be the technical favorite amoung the pros I know so you're dead on. #2 was my D-i-L/art director shaking the tree at Cyndi. Was a seriously fun 20th shoot for Cyndi and I. Thanks for the comments as always.

    Nice set, but I think this one you didn't show is the strongest. The extra touch of light on her cheek is a nice separation from the background and gives it an extra flare.
