A few from a cold afternoon yesterday. First time really using the 5DII w/ the 70-200 2.8 on people. Happy with the performance, even managed a few action shots on the swing, although these were hit and miss AF wise!

Any C+C appreciated, especially in regards to PP.

Very nice pics, i think the white balance is off though especially in the latter ones.

Thanks Jamie, fair comment r.e the WB. I did batch them all in lightroom but then ended up tweaking individually, light was falling off fast making WB a bit of a nightmare!

Do any of you find it off puttingly wrong on a photo by photo basis or is it because the set varies from photo to photo?
 
For me it was mostly because they look quite warm in colour for a winters day but i'm sure if you was doing these for someone they would be happy.
 
The only one I find a bit warm is no.4 but that might be because I'm seeing it against the others, its a cracking shot of him though. I might also up the exposure a bit for no.3

Hope this helps :)

Loving number 1!! I can't think what you could do to improve it so it must be perfect! :)

Totally agree, next set I do in the same location will have a cooler process applied. They seemed pretty chuffed with them so that keeps me happy :LOL:

Thanks Lee, yes the more I look at it, the more obvious to me it is that it's slightly underexposed :)

No 1 stands out for me although the rest aren't too shoddy either :D - I have the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 and it's THE lens for people I feel

I have had a play with this shot- cropped and adjusted the WB-hope you don't mind?

Very nice Les, thanks for taking the time to have a play. Perhaps slightly too much of a crop for my liking, but the colour is more inline with the rest of the set. Did you pull the yellows back slightly or was there more too it?

I pulled back the yellows slightly in RAW Adam, and as for the crop -we all like things in a different way, I personally prefer a slightly tighter crop (y)
