Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. 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. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

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.

Sorry Christian - I meant to post this morning, but thought it may have been something with the server - can't see any photos...... just red crosses.

Maybe try to repost?

Great photos. I think you caught the moment great. I love the facial expression in the last image. THe second image she looks like a doll. Great shots and great conversion to B&W.

Happy birthday to your little girl. You told the story well by setting the scene with the first shot then the next two show the expressions on her face which tell the story. You've caught the moment well and I'm sure you and your beautiful daughter will look back at the pictures in the years to come with delight. Nice work and conversion.
Regards,
Murray

I love photo 1 but #2 is just beautiful. My little girl is nearly 4 and I can see where you're coming from (proud dad style).

They really are great images, she's a beautiful little thing too :)

You should be happy with them.

Hi everyone

thanks for your comments, much appreciated, very glad you like them.

the lighting was horrible, just a couple of floroucent tubes, a bit dark. I was getting 30/s at f2.8 so i change my f5 to manual and change to it 40/s at f2.8 and some at f5.6. the flash was at -1.3 pointing up with a white difuser.

mostly shot with an 80-200mm f2.8 afsw and 18-35mm.

thanks

christian

It's not about a single photo more than another, I reckon - they work as a trio. Love them!
