We were invited to our friend's house over the weekend. Of course I took my 828 and my newly acquired "one-light-stand" (Sunpack 555 + brollybox + pocketwizard trigger)
I like the way these two shots came out:

I like the way they came out also :thumb

High points for me:

The expression and warmth in the eyes of the mother (as well as the lighting), and the lighting on the daughter is just wonderful.

Great job...

Take care,

I think you nailed the first photo. Wonderful lighting, really brings out the character in her face.

I'm not so fond of the second pose.

As to the girl - this is her natural pose. I didn't want to force her to look into the camera eye.. If you knew her I think you'd say "it's very her"..
I hope #1 will still like #2:-)

Thank you for your comments!

I can understand that. There is not "right opinion" when it comes to art. Perhaps if #2 was looking at flowers or a book in her hand. I also don't like the way she fits in the frame.

But I'm being picky...like a photographer...#1 will see it like a mother :)

She was looking at the ping-pong table..:-)
