Hello All,

Took my new nifty fifty to my friend's house to take a few pictures of his daughter.

This was my second go at doing stills, so please let me know what you think: -

Photo 3 for me but the eyes are all a bit dark and the last one looks to bleached out.

Definitely image 3

All lovely shots but number 4 is my fave but maybe with a tighter crop to get rid of all the black that takes the picture up.Number 4 is a nice shot as well but you have lost a lot of detail in pp I think.

4 for me , last shot does seem washed out.

Number 3 for me too, perhaps a tighter crop would improve number 2?

Number three for me - looks more natural and less posed. The others are nice but agree the eyes need to be less dark, bring them out a little, not too much so that it doesn't look totally unatural but enough to make them pop a bit.

Thank you for all the comments everyone.

This was the first time I have ever taken pictures of a person (with my dslr), so I was really glad with how they came out.

I will take on board all of your comments

Thank you..
