Thank you Steve for posting here
He is tasting the ice cream
Don't you find the flash a bit too strong ?

You are quite right Antonio, schoolboy error

I think this version should be better

Thank you for commenting too Mary.

[Antonio Correia]

Oh well... You have done far better haven't you ?
Thank you Steve

[stevewe88]

Didn't I tell you that you could do better ?
I knew it

Have a nice week end Steve
Oh and thank you for posting here again

I am enjoying the weekend so far with some unseasonably nice weather.
I hope you are too.

Excellent Christopher, excellent

Colin would make a better judgement since he knows very very much about flash and studio photography

Thank you for posting here Christopher

Thank you, the common criticisms of this shot are the downcast eyes and the flyaway hairs on the right side. I like the mood created by the downcast eyes. The flyaway hairs are left in a statement about photography and reality. And some laziness.

I had the challenge and privilege of photographing a friend's wiggly wee baby yesterday... the same pose in Mum;s arms gave a different expression every moment, I thought these 4 seemed to suit a square crop and 4 square frame set-up....
Thankyou to my Portrait specialist friends for their C&C...

Thank you Joanne for posting here.
This image as the other one posted on the nSCP's in of great quality.
I dare say that this one is a better than the other. Well, this is just my opinion. I like best the fact that she is looking far ahead involved is some kind of game, while the other is looking at far yes, but with a distracting look.
In this one she looks and apparently she is seing and watching what happens far away, while on the other one she is just looking if you know what I mean.
It is not strange to the message of the image the eye protection she is wearing...
The work is great in terms of black and white. I assume you shot it with a long lens as we can perceive in the bokeh shown in the background.

Thank you again. Both great entries
Please, be my guest and post more... but one at time if you please.

Thank you Peter for digging in the well and revive this thread for some moments posting this photo.
The effect is quite interesting as well as the position of your young grand-daughter (she is your grand-daughter isn't she ?) translating some kind of movement bending forward but looking at us.
The borders of the image is one interesting effect... There are so many apps for iPhone on the web... But you had to pay for this one...
