He was at my disposal and doing what I wanted.
The flash is too harsh on the left side with it's light on the building (not on him).
And he was waring white ...

I was not aware of that light on location. I should have (barned) hidden the light somehow.

Next time when I will be in Samode Palace leading a group of Portuguese photographers (and whoever wants to come) next October. (I hope).

Don't be sorry Steve ! :)
You have to earn money to eat and this is not what we are doing here :)

Your young man looks great here. :)

Be ware however that his face has burned areas which you probably can correct in the raw file.

You could also frame - just another of my thoughts - a little more to the back, with more field and frame the young man a little to the right side of the image. Like giving him - in the picture - room to look at.:)

Cute young man. look at his hair :D

Thank you for posting. :)

Hi Steve,

I quite like the way you have him vertical and have let the background go where it wants.

As Antonio says, there are some exposure problems that, if shot RAW, a careful go at with PP could probably aleviate.

Regardless of that, it is a nice picture, well done,

Thanks Antonio. The face was quite badly burned out in the original image so this was the best I could recover but his expression made it worthwhile.

You are right about the frame, I must not be so eager to post and spend another 2 minutes doing it.

What do I like specially in the image of post 707 ?

The blurred background with desaturated colors, while he - our young man - pops up in his fancy colors.

The rest Alis, oh well... the usual good and nice quality you usually have in your images. :)

A trifle:D:D

About the other 708 ? The usual, the usual. What can one say looking at so good work ?

Keep doing it my friend :)

Oh. I almost forgot: thank you for posting ! :)

Thanks, Antonio!

I am getting close I think. I like the skin tones on the last one especially. It is very close to real thing I see everyday :)

PS: WOW! This new software is cool :)

That sounds like something Colin can do to fix the problem. I mean this may be an option that they can change?

Perfect lighting on the first one. What was the setting, Antonio?

The light was bounced against the wall which was behind me.
I was on my knees and the light about 2.00 meters hight.
TTL flash.
:)

Nice black and white Alis ... :)

Family meeting - where is the photographer ? :rolleyes:

Front row 'camera left'?

Ok, here's a question for you Antonio - are those shoes on the shelves behind the family? :)

Best regards,
