Becca Boo!



So much for staying on theme! I did a pretty good job last week with the favorite color theme, but I'm not getting a very good start this week! I had no time this weekend to take pictures for the upcoming topic, so I'm posting some photos that I took of DD last week. She was cooperative for a change - my kids are pretty tired of me practicing on them! Settings for both were RAW, AV mode, ISO 400, 28-90mm lens, the first was f/5.6, ss 1/640, the second was f/5.0, ss 1/800. Conversion on first and vignette on second added in PSE4. I'm looking for some HHCC on these because I'm really trying to improve my portraits. Thanks for looking!

I like the angle on the first one. Nice shots...I know about kids and how uncooperative they can be. Mine are getting down right angry.

Beautiful shots, nice conversion and angle in the first one and the weathered wood background in the 2nd is very cool.

That is a beautiful conversion in the first shot, and I really like the peeling paint on the background of #2. Nice job!

Well done for persisting with uncooperative kids. Nice shots - what happens if you run Urban Acid on the second one?

I think you're doing well with your portraits. I enjoy the angle in #1, not too overdone, but effective. I think the only thing that's missing is a little life in the eyes...they seem a tad flat to me. But, these are very soft and lovely feeling.
