[HVB88]

Hi All,

Welcome to my A Picture A Week 2011.

Need to push myself to take my son picture during the weekend so that I can learn more.
Do give your comments and I hope I can learn more from CSers here :thumbsup:

Cheers!

i really like the composition and the moment captured

but i was thinking perhaps could further increase the exposure and contrast (i know this would blow the highlights on the lights, but important to better light your son who is the subject) ... just my opinion!

 

[HVB88]

Glad you like it Kwanhan.

Yes, you're right, I need to bump up the face exposure a little bit... Really appreciate your suggestion.

nice as usual

but i was thinking that perhaps could raise the color temperature a bit to warm up the skin tones?

 

[HVB88]

Thanks Kwanhan for the nice word.

Yes, you're right... the skin tone is a bit off. Thank you for highlighting this.
