Took a stroll in the woods (or more like forrest) the other day with my children and our friend Isabelle. Snapped a few pictures of Isa and Elliot among the Windflowers. So summerish! :): Just wanted to share.

Regards / Matty

    Love #2 and #3.

    #2 because the kid is having such a great time.

    #3 because you got Isabelle to sit, pose, and prop herself on her arm WITHOUT the shoulder rising too much to interfer with the image AND she still looks pretty relaxed in that pose. Just lovely work.

    Oh, and the subjects didn't hurt the effort either. You boy is adorable and I'm glad I don't live next door to Isabellerolleyes1.gif

    Thank you, Scott!
    I like #2 too, but I can't help but laughing a little when looking at it. He doesn't look that way - very looong neck and extremely shooort arms. I dunno how he did that! I had to pull his arms as hard as I dared to pull down his neck close to the shoulders again. *Hahaha* Na, just kidding! Weird though!

    These are seriously some of the best portrait shots that I have seen in a while, superb job. Colors are outrageous, thumb.gifthumb.gifthumb.gifthumb.gifthumb.gif .

    What lens are you using, im guessing a 50mm f/1.4?

    Thank you very much, Marko! No, acctually these was shot with my Sigma 70-300 f4.0-f5.6 DG Macro at 300 mm. A great lens for the price tag! :):
