Here are a few pictures of my youngest daughter at the school playground down the street. C&C welcome. Is the flash too heavy? How is the color? How is the exposure?

    Lovely...
    Hi David... you asked 'bout the exposure and colors... and all I can say they are great!

    #1 is a stunning portrait, her face looks so innocent and gentle... great shot!

    Thanks a lot for sharing!
    Take care!

    #1 - Love the lighting, color and composition. Great job!

    #2, 3 - Too posed, which I know happens at this age! Laughing.gif! She's a cutie, but the expressions seem to be for the camera and not because she's having fun. I do LOVE the poses - fun!

    #4 - My favorite. Seems to be more natural... You may try bumping the contrast to see if that brings it out more. I'd also love to see this in B&W. I bet it would be nice! You could crop a bit off the top and help the composition a bit.

    Great series! Gorgeous girl! :)

    Thanks Andi. Your feedback is very helpful. I "sandwiched 2&3 in the middle, because I didn't feel they were my stronger shots. I will try your suggestions on #4. Thanks again.

    I too liked #4 the best-

    I also felt the poses on the others were too forced where as the last was most natural-


    sent you a pm-
