    That's a smug mug you got there :D

    Great shot, lovely colors and subject. Maybe brighten up her right arm a little bit. It looks like lens vignetting might have caused that. Otherwise, I love it! thumb.gif

    Thanks Michael. Yeah, I didn't do any lens correction on it and the VRI does have a little bit of vignetting.

    This is a perfect portrait: nice natural smile, great colors, lighting. Also, it helps that she is gorgeous!

    She really is an exact cross between the two of you, isn't she?! Beautiful young woman; beautiful photo. iloveyou.gif

    Thanks Kate.

    Diva... she truly is a hybrid. Down to her personality traits as well. She has my talkative, dorkiness and her mothers temper and strong will. Laughing.gif

    She's absolutely gorgeous, Alex, and that's a great portrait. Any idea why there's a dark stripe along the lower left hand edge of the frame? With that and her dark arm, it looks almost like a shutter synch problem, but the stripe would have to go to the top of the frame.

    Thanks Joel. The stripe is a shadow created by the roof line. I do plan on bring out the shadows in the arm. We were both standing right next to the house under the shade. The roof line is L-shaped where she is standing... so she is at the bottom of the L, if that makes sense.

    I actually cloned out the Smug from the cup and am going to submit this to Getty Images for stock photo consideration. I can see this in ad of some time. Laughing.gif
