About Invited to our daughter's home for dinner, I was stunned to discover I had left Nikki at work! Panic ensued although it had been safeguarded even more than Fedral Reserve Deposits, it being locked in the Security Office. I went to get it and ended up with a wonderful dinner and my precious . . . my, my, my . . . p-p-p-p-rec-ious-es! :P

Hard to sleep with adults talking, isn't it? Slipping into the room . . . I caught Cydney and a series of shots. Here she's daydreaming of turning 38 years old . . . when Grandpa promises she can date with his blessing (and approval of the lad after reviewing when he made Eagle Scout . . . and reading the letters of reference from his two MARRIED parents, his clergyman, and checking his credit report)!

Thanks John . . . normally I would have bounced the flash, it's true. Just wasn't an option in this case. :)

now that is a great smile... and a great portrait, you put the cute little face right to the side - corner of the frame, the distance from your flash was a bit small for that power of light BUT not something bad, not at all...
excellent
be well Doyle!

Well you best BERLEEV it . . . the other was called Nik. And this one is a she . . . so . . . Nyah! (imagine yellow smiley thing sticking out --and wiggling-- a huge tongue in your general direction)

Welllll . . . aren't you cute? I'm fairly certain that you know full well that was not what I had in mind. LoL! But . . . it ain't bad. :)

I can't BERLEEV you actually referred to your machine as "Nikki"! At least you refer to "it" rather than "her" though... (imagine yellow smiley thing here)

PS Beks . . . she doesn't get into a lot of trouble for reading . . . but the DOS (electronic game) has it's own light. ;)

Thanks Beks! I saw the glint as well (actually two of them - the other being near the corner of her impish, cheeky grin). I agree but the Speedlight I use with the diffuser was absent so I had to 'make do'! LoL!

Let's see . . . begun, emergency, rush, return, finish and kick youself . . . I get the picture. Well . . . I DO have a picture in my mind anyway - Hehehee . . .

Excellent critique even without using the phrase "Genius"! LoL!

Oh, did I mention the cheeky grin? No?
Well I love the cheeky grin...looks like she has been caught reading under the covers with a torch after lights out!!

LOL Doyle, I was just beginning to comment on this image when I had a minor emergency....had to rush off in a hurry, then come back and finish the comment (in a hurry) and was kicking myself at the same time (am very flexible), in a hurry and anyway...well, you get the picture!

Cydney just blows me away with her gorgeous looks when you put her picture on here. Her skin is just to die for, and the 'gorgeous, gorgeous light' (who knew a flash could do it!!! LOL) in this really does give her a maple syrup glow. I love it.
Lovely framing and colour, only thing that gripes me is the glint on the strand of hair level with her chin to the right (could be a piece of fluff?), distracts me...picky, picky, picky....

There, How was that?

cheers, Beks;)

Wonderful expression and beauty in this shot! And the about tells everything about the shot! I think the use of fill flash made this photo, and you managed it so well.
All the best dear Doyle,
