[RickMezza]

[sawman]

[Janice]

The leg of her sitting down?

[oldgit]

Good shot. Novel and well done

[petemc]

Nicely done. Love the eyes.

[Janice]

The leg of her sitting down?

No... I cant understand the photo..... she is holding a leg of someone...what is that thing of the person standing up at the top right of the photo?

[Puz]

Thanks all, The thing on the right is actually my mates leg and shirt. She was just wearing a shirt and thats her daughter holding her leg. It looks a little weird i agree but i'm not sure i can cut it out without unbalancing the picture ?

[Jonnyreb]

:nono: leave it - its part of the scene! :)

[Jimmy_Lemon]

I like the processing, not sure on the shot though. It looked like she was looking up someones skirt when I first looked, then it looked like a t-shirt...then I just got a bit confused like Janice :(

EDIT - took too long typing...right with a back story it makes sense to me now, maybe something in the title to make it clear its mother and daughter or something, dunno.

My friend's nan said it looked like a man's codpiece and i can't get that orrible picture out of my head ! :eek:

[Janice]

Ah sorry....i thought it was a man! :eek:

[staffitaxi]

I too thought it was a bloke and even with the explanation I can't get that out of my head which spoils the shot for me. Sorry.

The little girl looks great though, you are really drawn to her eyes.

thanks Janice... now i do too

but you're right Puz, you need her hands in the frame and you may loose them if you crop

nice though as it is

[AquilaEagle]

I cropped it a bit tighter... better?

Yeh I think the crop works. I was speaking to the mum in question tonight and we were trying to work out whether to crop it or to photoshop it a little to remove the 'bulge' as it where !

pic sharp eyes, what equipment did you use?

An old Canon 300D and a very old 50mm 1.8 lense.
I bought the lense for portraits esp as it was cheap as chips ! :thumbs:

[Magic88]

Very nice. I like the eyes, also.
