Hey me again LOL 2 a day...wow dats alot! Anyways I had my little brother pose for me a bit today since I am mostly interested in photographing children...most the time I do it outsite but I desided to give this a chance! Lighting was...well LoL it wasn't really! I just used my flash and the light that was in the room before *blush* it's about all I can afford at the moment!
I know alto of you dont like the selective desaturature but personally I love it and everything about it! I have alot of colorfull props that I like to use and just wow I love the effect!
BUT there is one issue, the focus didn't turn out so great in all of the pictures! I was thinking it might be because of lack of light, but what appature would you recomend for poor indoor lighting with flash? I have a 35-80mm lense.
So here are a couple of the pic's
pic1
pic2
pic3
pic4
pic5
pic6
I like that last one alot, BECAUSE the rose thingi is blocking his mouth but I think it sends you straight to the eyes :)
I guess they'r not formal, and some people would call them "candid", atleast some of them, but I don't think so! They'r portraits of my lil brother hehe and I think they capture him very well :) |

Very unconventional to say the least. I like picture 5 mostly because it seems to be the least distracting from the subject, and I think it looks very good. In the first few there's a big emphasis on the colored items and not on the actual subject, usually I'd say to stay away from this method.
I usually like 2.8 for app., if you go to much under that the photos will be less sharp and even less likely to be in focus throughout the face.
