Backlighting
Uploaded: August 17, 2006
I've been working on nailing it and I think I finally got it...YEAH! I figured I needed to learn it when I start PBing and I go to a customer's house and they have horrible natural light....I can just stick them in a window! =)

Beautiful Brenda, great job getting all the detail on her face, did you meter her face with your camera to get the correct shutter speed? looks great :) #505208Chastity Abbott August 17, 2006
This is wonderful with the backlighting. I esp love the small shadow work up front on the hardwood flooring. The way she is leaning forward creates such an sweet natural pose as if she has just learned to sit up. I LOVE her piggies and the detail in the lining of the tutu.. I have to agree with Lynn, the detail in her face is brilliant and thats where my eyes go first when I look at this. Nice conversion!! AWESOME baby girl portrait* :o) #3177815Vendla Stockdale August 17, 2006
