My girlfriend

She asked me to take her portrait to put in her early music group site. I agree, and we go to park to take pictures.

I took 4 or 5 shots, and I see two child stay there, looking at us, and I think: "I will be robbed". Then, I said: "Would you sit there, to me take a pic of you?" and the childs liked, and I take the picture.

I learn a lot, we don't have to preconcept, and ever we need to think and to make the good to people. This night I would upload the child's shot.

The photo is sharp with good exposure values. However, the background is far to busy - filled with buildings and trees. Next time, I would suggest a more neutral background - say a park. You might try cropping this photo to remove most of the background and have just girl with her recorder.

The talk-to-the-people-to-not-get-robbed technique...hehehe

 

I use that myself here in Florianópolis.

 

The fill flash is just perfect, great picture.
