Bye-bye

Lannie, a very good portrait and her gesture is wonderful, again good light and well exposed .Her hand with her toy is a bit a distraction, as my eye is attracted to it. I thought that a square format will help concentrate only on her, as she is very sweet. what do you think?

I think that you are right, Pnina, although I rather like having the doll in there. As pure portrait work, of course, it would be better to clone it out.

Thanks for viewing.

I agree with Pnina because the doll's face isn't really showing enough to provide interest. I think it's more of a distraction because it's hard to make it out. The girl is very sweet and I think should be the main focus of interest. Just my two cents... Nice lighting and tones.

Very nice candid shot with great DOF. Strong work Lannie!

Kim, I know that the composition is stronger without the doll, but this is a candid shot, and she was carrying the doll, and so I left it in.

 

Thanks, Tyler.
