High Key

[Xpaced]

Hi

I normally prefer taking low key shots for portraits I like the darkness behind the person and also seem to get mainly high key from studio shots. I thought I would have a go and would welcome any feedback. Thanks.

and

and with some cropping and pp I came up with my favourite :-

Nice sharp images although, on the first two there are some dark patches around the little ladies head where you have missed painting out in pp. The 3rd one is best for me, suits her pose

Nicely done, as above a little more care with the pp and thay would be even better.

Side not if she is your daughter get her to stop sucking her fingers I have two permanent scars from doing the same thing as a youngster.

I think No3 is far and away the best of the three but is let down a little by the crop that has removed the top of her head. If its there in the original image I think another crop would make this an outstanding image.

I am not sure if this works any better....?? Hmmm....

Not really high key but white bg suits kids pics
