I havent posted anything here for a while...

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.

Forum rules
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.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Lovely little girl, and beautiful shots, the ones that appeal to me most are the last two.. the first two I don't find as engaging.. but I'm tired and its past midnight so I'll take another look with fresher eyes :)

I'm with Craig on this one, second two for me here.
I would however crop some of the white space from the top of the last to even up.
COlours are great and they are sharp as you like.

Great stuff Bindii - love #1 and #4. I bet the parents are stoked. It's a personal thing, but I loathe earrings and jewelery on little people. To me, it just looks wrong. But yes, that's only my opinion.

Very cute Bindii, like them all though if it was my image I may blur the earring in 3, find it too distracting and dominating

Good idea.....I will do that thanks....:)

I should have explained the white space...the parents asked for some of the images to be made into cards...so I have framed some of the pics to leave room so that text can be added later when they select which images are for which purpose...

I also should have mentioned that as this job was so rushed - I recieved the booking while I was at work and I had to go straight there after work to shoot so I only had a limited kit with me and no backdrop etc so I had to improvise...I also only had 3/4 of an hour for the whole shoot as they were going out...and the baby cried for at least haf of that...lol

the things we do..:)

Thank you everyone for your comments!
