Helpful Posts: Just some shots taken around the place over the Festive Season of Sam, Alf and Bonnie. And one of the family group of Penny, Bonnie and Runt, relaxing after filling their faces.
Hope everyone had a happy and safe Xmas. Roll on 2015 hey? With lots of catch up posts, once the effects of overeating too much Chrissie Pud subside?
Thanks for viewing these which were only fun shots and not worthy of wasting your time on a comment. An old photographer, over primed on Christmas cheer to the point he will shoot anything that is not moving, deserves no better!But any comment would be appreciated, if only to induce the old fool to see the error of his ways of wandering around unsupervised, with a camera in one hand and a glass of Chrissie Bubbly in the other.

Re: Chrissie portraits from One Tree hill
Nice, I like the black cow the best, the others are a bit soft.

Re: Chrissie portraits from One Tree hill
A pity that the first one isn't quite as sharp as the others. It makes a nice portrait angle.

Re: Chrissie portraits from One Tree hill
Thank you all for taking the time and effort to post comments. Bit confused here though. Everything I read about it or watch on mini training videos tells me that portraits are meant to be 'soft.'

Re: Chrissie portraits from One Tree hill
Perhaps this is a matter of personal choice. Over the top processing which gives a harsh appearance is distracting but too soft tends to just look poorly focused. However, getting the balance just right is what makes a good portrait photographer.

Re: Chrissie portraits from One Tree hill
I think with people's especially with women's faces, it is suppose to be soft so the wrinkles will be a bit ironed or something, but with animals, we have to see the nits and dandruffs in between the hairs, furs or whatever they are called... Originally Posted by ucci
