Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Excellent combo: Tripod + remote...

holy those are some cute pictures! Well done.

I'm not too sure about that pattern on the sofa, a little distracting?

What a cutie.

Its quite amazing... She is very curious about the look of the d70...

So much so that unless I get out from behind the camera she just has her "curious and confused" look on...

Once I get out and make silly daddy noises and smily faces she will then start to grin... but still look at the camera...

I guess I cant complain really :D


The pattern in on the change table... this was a spur of the moment thing... I have plans to (one day) so set up a proper background and use the flash off camera for a proper shoot...

But she smiles and is happy when she wants to and that is when I have to grab the cam..

If you had a giant piece of glass with little circles twitching behind it, wouldn't you be curious?

Gotta tell ya MHD that you can't wait one day with kids. Before you know it, the days, months and years will have rolled by and you'll be saying "Gosh - where did all the time go"

Get your shoot set up real soon. Isabelle is growing up so fast, as the weeks roll by.

Your photos have shared this with us beautifully!

MHD I've got a little one about the same age as yours so I'm really keen to hear how you set up the 'shoot' as I'd like to try it myself.

You've done a great job with the skin tones in that pic. Did you shoot in nef or how did you set the WB?
Regards

It was shot Jpeg... and I didnt nail the WB (was a bit blue) But thankfully I had the white nappy which made post proccessing the WB easy!

The setup...
*Isabelle on change table (for some reson she likes that)
*Tripod and cam set up with the framing I wanted
*I auto focused and then set the cam to manual
**this turned out to be really important! Not only did it speed up shot time but the auto focus assist light was making her squint**
*I then got out from behind the cam, set it to remote and, while making all kinds of silly daddy faces used the every handy Jaycar remote to fire it....

Priceless! No amount of money will ever be able to buy what these images are worth to you in 50 years time.
The true value of a photograph.
