Had the very rare chance to relax a little today with the wife and our youngest (whilst the other two were at school). Headed into the city for a walk and a pub lunch (can't remember the last time we did that!!!). Of course, the camera came as well

These are all really good. Really like the PPing, with the contrast and sat levels.

What lens you using cause these are super sharp.

Excellent shots. Inspired me to get some shots of my boy.

Thanks and thanks for posting.

Thanks for the comments.

They were all taken with the Nikon 70-200 except the second which was taken with the Tokina 12-24. All shot JPEG and PP in Lightroom only.

Sarah (my wife) loves the first one the best... I like 2 and 3, and 1

Actually one more thing to note...

I just bought the Gary Fong Lightsphere cloudy and this was the first outing with it. I must say I am impressed. These were all taken with the SB-800 and lightsphere on camera pointed directly at the subjects.

I think this little (well maybe not so little) thing does a pretty good job of diffusing the light. Of course there are cheaper copies from Hong Kong out now, but of course I didn't see them until I already ordered

What comes through in these pics is happy people. You got a happy family and captured that.

That's becouse the older 2 were at school... Only joking.

That is actually a good compliment Matt, thanks. As everytime I point the camera at kids or a family that is what I strive to achieve, capturing the emotion of the subject.

I'm glad you like.

2 & 3 are classic shots, first class. You've got the S3 pro singing...

Thanks, but it was the D300

The S5 does not come out of the bag very often
