No, they went in before the Summer and I really wanted to photograph them but this is the only opportunity I got..Great to hear from you -

Sherry it was about 16:00 it was getting dark, which it a way was good because the sky was too bright so I didn't need too much flash to maintain the exposure balance

Very nice Richard but as noted above you can see some of the joins in the water. -

Oh wonderful light esp in the hair. The expression almost has a look of anguish about it..Excellent Shot, I'd love one like this in my portfolio -

Nice pose and light. Bit red under the eye and on the nose, like the light on the back

Very nice shutter speed. Wish it was sharper on the face. Good expression on the subject and the contact to the camera is good. -

Wow thats close, very sharp and wonderful details. tthe patterns in the eye are VERY interesting -
Thanks Fred,
I can say the following that might give you some insight into why this shot has a different connection than the new ones I have posted.
1. This was toward the end of a session with the lady and we had spent quite a bit of time together during the day so obviously had a much stronger connection than I had with these other people.
2. I prefer working on location to working in a static sterile studio. I really don't feel any connection between myself and a studio setup and if I did it would gravitate towards the mush less commercial low-key and strong light and shadow work.
3. The shots I took the other night, I only took about 6 - 10 shots of each person. So the amount of time to get a shot that stood out was quite small.
I think my ratio the other night was the wrong choice. It was the first time I tried high key. I think all the lights were in the right place. I had never worked with more than 2 lights before, there were 4 here and that aspect I am happy with. My ratio the other night was almost 1:1 with only .5 stop difference between the two lights with the less powered light a little lower than the other one to help fill the shadows.
I think a full stop difference might be better and give a more moulded look.
My main issue with studio is there is nothing for the subject to do or look at. Its just sterile and my mind does not like to work in a sterile environment like that.
