Description

We moved the couch another 2 or 3 feet away from the window. The lighting looks more evenly diffused here than either of the other two. There is another window on the other side of the room that is starting to give a little back light to her hair. There is a little bit of clutter in the background but it is blurred at least. I like this composition the best with her head to the upper left. And finally, you can always tell a real smile, no matter how good the fake one is. Overall, I'm certain these are the best portrait type photos I've ever taken and was happy with the results (I'm biased of course). Thanks for the lesson.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
