The first 3 are taken with the 17-55, the rest 70-200....First one is a little toooooo highkey and some I forgot to remove the mark on the girls face from these web versions.

Lovely sharp high keys shots. You did well to get eye contact from all the kids! Are the eyes in the first one a little bit too bright? were they dodged?

I love these! The processing is fantastic.

The last four, in particular, are stunning!:thumbs:

A little too high key for my tastes but the 2nd last one of the girl and baby is very nice !!

Same for me Im afraid...too high key and too sharp.., although 4, 5 & 6 are a little softer and kinder to the subjects.

First 3 are very contrasty and the background is too white... As said harsh to look at.

The latter are somewhat better but still suffer from Daz whites.

Very good shots and composition ***. Just the PP thats letting them down.

Too bright for me - but overall very nice work. No6 is a corker! :thumbs:

Its the single baby shots for me, especially #5 (though I love his expression in #6)
Im not keen on the 1st shot as it looks like their clothes are blown.
I like #3 though.
I also agree about the contrasty comments.
What do they look like in colour and a little softer? ... just as good as Venture prints I bet! ;)

Thanks guys, just trying something different....although some liked (even me) they are still too much. I'll give them another go but here are the colour versions in the meantime.(in first post)...although the first is still too light.
(though I love his expression in #6)

He's a she! ;) :D
Thanks again.
