Very cute and very good photo, Damian! That's some pretty tough light for a portrait! #21120Curtis Forrester May 26, 2019
Nice tight composition! #48709Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019
Thanks Gary & Curtis!I'm reading Bryan F. Peterson's book about Understanding Exposure and thought I'd try a shot with some difficult side lighting to see if it would add a little more feel of depth to the shot!

Yikes - I know that feeling Jeannie! Thanks for the comment - my niece isn't camera shy, that's for sure! #48793Shelley Sanders May 26, 2019
Good for you, practicing with different lighting. I love to do that! She is a cutie! Even with that strong light, you did well not to overexpose. #48851Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019
Thanks so much Shelley! #48859Donna R. Moratelli May 26, 2019
Damian, Take the class first! Then you'll enjoy the upgrade and won't wear it out with too much practice. Once you take the course you'll be very confident and satisified with the first or second image instead th 6th or 7th! I took Brians creative photography course in October and sure am glad that I waited to buy the D60. Now I am taking my second course with Jim Z and it's a blast.Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019
If the classes are half as good as his books, they will be more then fantastic.Thanks for the info Donna!
I'll work it into my plans.... Right now, I'm saving up to pay the balance of my income taxes...
California is a mess right now, might be for a long time with what Governor Davis has done... So, I'm going to have to plan carefully!
In the mean time.... I'll take lots of pix (when I can) and have some fun with it! #48918
