Just a quick one while testing out a 135 f/2 L lens (needs a lot more practice!). I love this face. It’s about as natural a look as I can get from him these days. His other face that he makes is this long. bugged eyed face that he thinks is what I want for looking at the camera. I have to remember not to correct him because he’s trying to be good. Let’s pause for a moment and recognize “trying to be good.” :::::::::::::: Anyway, I love the late day light in my front yard. It comes right through the trees and provides for great soft flat light or amazing backlight. My real dream would be to get him a little closer up and lower down in front of that wall. Yummy background texture. But I am pretty sure if I did that he would look really angry or run the other way, so I will take what I can get.
After considerable conversation with some friends, I need to make mention that I didn’t “do” her eyes. Those are her whites, they are that clear, she has that much depth in them. It’s all about finding the light. This is actually pretty high ISO, I just have her close to the sliding door for a direct light source, there is a window far away but from the other direction, so it’s sort of like there are giant natural light softboxes all around the room. I love her little elfin face!
