My First portrait.

briandh76

Howdy everyone! I'm new to this board and ne win the photography world.
Let me give ya a little run down.
My name is Brian, I'm from a small town in Ohio and I'm 28 years old. I have been shooting for the last 3 or 4 years but just recently started taking it seriously. I own a Nikon D70, a Nikon n75, 3 cheapo lenses, 28-80 promaster, 75-200 tamron, and a 100 prmaster macro. Here's my first attempt of a "portrait" of my son that was born November 4th.

Camera: Nikon D70 Lens: Promaster 28-80 3.5-5.6 Support / Exposure: 1/30 sec - F/8 Bounce flash off ceiling

Hi Briandh welcome welcome.. Love the shot of your son, it's beautiful. I'm not sure I like the "framing"... just a personal opinion, for me it detracts from the baby.

I agree with Lynn. The border is distracting. Otherwise very nice indeed

thanks for the comments. Yea I was playing with borders and I agree it is distracting, I just haven't got around to uploading the original.
