Gwynn in Argentina

These are some pictures of my little sis on her trip to visit me in Argentina this winter (well, your summer). Please, feel free to C&C! None of them have been adjusted.

Most of these are in Puerto Madryn, on the Peninsula Valdés on the Argentine coast. Obviously, she was posing, but mainly kind of wandering around. We were trying to get pictures to give the grandparents. The one that looks out of place is in Bariloche, after it snowed at our hotel by the lake.

Bariloche - the little white specks are not noise, but snow.

Looks like a beautiful place, your sister is a pretty lady.

I love her red outfit in contrast w/ the background. Looks like a gorgeous place!

I love the last photo in particular, and the one where she is spinning with her shawl in the air. She seems like a very free person! Just wish it was more in focus.

OK, I wish that one was more in focus, too. How do I get a fast-moving picture more in focus? I was using a fast shutter speed...

It's OK, blur happens! From the time of day you were shooting I'm guessing it was relatively dark. Your shutter speed was probably fast for regular handheld shots (like #1) but still not fast enough to stop her motion. If I had been in that situation I would have pushed the ISO higher to compensate for it.

And also had her stand there and spin and spin and spin until I got one that I was OK with, or until she got too dizzy (whichever comes first )

If you shot RAW, adjust the EV exposure to -1/3...see what that does for you.
