nice

in that case, shooting digital makes it easy...shoot several shots...adjusting your f/stop along the way...start at like f/4 and shoot several exposures with increasing f/stops...f/4; f/5.6; f/8; f/11 and then choose the image that best represents the DOF that you had been looking for...it helps

would have been a much better shot of any of the subjects would have been in focus...the point of focus appears to be the womans hairline...the eyes are paramount in a portrait. In one such as this, it's preferable to use a smaller f/stop like f/11-16 to get both the subjects faces in focus and to avoid the narrow DOF...just a hint.

Also, just my opinion, but...other than 'period' pieces (old fashioned types) it's just best to stay away from sepia toning, it's more preferable just to go B&W or stay color. In my experience, they just look better/sell better/do better...

The image is on-topic, and the pose is good, just needs some fine-tuning to be 'great'...GL Author

Very cool. Might crop just a little more from the right

well done

perfect.. very good b & W, bravo

sweet

try cropping the photo, there is far too much foreground, and we can hardly see the stairs.

Nice. Everybody looks good in shot, well done

Very pretty young ladies

Everyday is a school day............I did not know that.......

Pretty darn good for a newbie to photography! Sixth place is super!!!

Pretty sure he means IRON. Great shot!

it's a little dark. you should bring out the "bling" with flash or more lighting. good photo though

adorable!

I agree with athousandwords! Great catch ...how long did you wait to get it?

I am sure you mean ICON!

wasn't this used before?

Very nice capture, but would have liked it if the cropping didn't center her so much

Love this! Perfect capture of Children and Puddles! They just go together

I like the effect..

to similar to the previous photo.

to dark, IMO and a higher res would be good.

Rolling Rock is actually pretty good for cheap beer

This is my beer of choice good luck Author

??

I guess tht's what the picture is about FallingHorse.. "Failed" focus.. hehe.. :P
no offense author..

I think you missed with the focus - it seems to be on the locked box/gas bottle behind her

Or... SUCCEED in balancing a ball on her head!

A lower POV would have improved this shot.

I thought about having money haning outta my purse but I don't have any... hehehe ... Nice shot!

if your headache's gone, you should be smiling.
