Anyone who does this for a living has my utmost respect. :clap:

This little angel was the biggest problem, sitting still wasn't really considered an option :lol:

No teeth! :D

The second one has a lovely warm // golden feel to it - I'm not saying it has a colour cast, it just has a lovely feel. Excellent.

You enjoyed it really ;)

Got another similar job on next week so I'll keep it till then at least.

I've alrady had an offer to buy it via PM :lol: Still really hankering after the 24-70, would have been perfect today, it was a wee bit cramped and the 50 was slightly too long some of the time.

An excellent set (both !) Dods ... liking them a lot ... and it is fair to say any parent would be chuffed to rocks with those results ... :clap:

For someone who (gives the impression he ... :D) doesn't like it ... you've made a damn fine job of those sittings m8 ... imo of course ... :thumbs:

Great stuff ... 'n respect ... ;)






:p

Thanks for the comments but I just got an email back saying the group ones are "fuzzy" :shrug:

Not having that, insisted I go back and do them again tonight, fuzzy indeed.

Can't believe their saying the group ones are 'fussy' :shrug: I think they look really good, seems like a very nice lens! The 1st one is my fav :) :)

Hmm, women and computers = :bang: Turns out she was opening them in her browser and it was reducing the size and making them look all fuzzy i.e. pixellated. Having said that took 5 shots in a minute and ended up with something I think is better than I got in an hour on sunday :) Touch of red-eye and colour balance needs a tweak this time (mix of flash and tungsten) but that's easy fixed.

I prefer the originals Doddy - loads more punch. The eyes are far better too - the red eye correction has killed all the expression in the eyes. Bummer though mate, sounds like a really awkward customer. Can't you show her the shots on a lappy?

She's not really awkward to be fair, she was more than a wee bit embarrassed when I showed her what was wrong ;)

I think I agree with you though, the first lot are better for impact.

This isn't bad though, just a quick play with it

Better Doddy, but not in the same league as the original shots mate. The lighting looks very flat in comparison. You did a bloody good job in the first place.:thumbs:

Still... the customer is always right. :shrug:

I'm with CT and think originals are of a higher quality but as a parent I would imagine that last one would be the clincher. The little girls delight is a joy!

Well done mate! :thumbs:

Hi George

Thank you so much. The photos are really lovely. I really appreciate you coming out last night. I realise it was out of your way.

I particularly LOVE 1,2,4,6,7,9,10,11,12!!!

I would appreciate 2 copies of each of the individual one's. And, unfortunately, about 16 copies of the group. So the duplicate copies is your choice!! As i love them ALL!!

Thanks again
