About Natural window light.

I really think something is up with this camera because I have been having a heck of a time getting it to focus properly, even when there is more than enough light available.

This came out a tad soft because of that :o( Bummer! I took another one that I preferred to this one, same type of composition but their expressions and body language were aweseome. It came out WAY too soft, though.

Melanie, not sure why suggest@usefilm.com hasn't answered yet. Probably a lot of stuff in there as you can imagine.

There is a minor bug that will get fixed shortly where the SC and other awards do not show up by the date they were awarded, but instead the images are ordered by the date they were entered. So I am sure that if you have received an award, which I know you have received many, they are probably there just buried under the later images. I will look into this when I get a chance and see if I can order by award date. The problem being that until the upgrade, the awarded date was not recorded, only the award itself.

Sorry for the bug, but keep posting those great images, they make my day.

Phil

Phil, I have a quick question for you. I actually emailed the suggest@usefilm email the other day, but did not get a response. I think either my email was not recieved or it was, but the response may have been filtered into my bulk mail and accidentally deleted.

ANYWAY, I noticed that the two photos that I recieved the SC on and the photo I recieved the POD on do not show up in the SC and POD categories. You know when you click on the link below the photo to see all the photos that have been awared the SC or POD? Mine are not listed there. This photo is listed under the BIP for the friendship categories, but the others that recently were awarded don't show there for some reason.

I honestly thought that I recieved the awards by mistake! LOL Anyway, I just thought I'd bring it to someone's attention. Dunno if this is happeningt to anyone else.

Thanks!

I can see why you would get this award. Congrats to you! Excellent eye contact, and that is not easy with kids. Great work and close up.

Thank you, Phil!

You know, I really can't argue with you. Sometimes I wonder if it's my ability or just the fact that they are so photogenic! LOL Either way, I thank God! LOL

Absolutely beautiful. I am so jealous that you have such beautiful models to photograph. It is almost unfair! ;=) How can you take a bad photo of 2 cuties like that!

Thanks for sharing,

Phil

Yes, a tripod would DEFINITELY help. It would also help if they would stay still!!! LOL

Thanks, Randy!

What can I say if not 'precious'?
Great capture of expressions Melanie, like protector and protected. This is a great series.
Well composed and nice tones. I see what you mean about softness, particularly noticable around his eyes. Almost looks like tripod would have helped. Non the less a wonderful shot.
