Must be fun, if not so convenient ;-) In any case you get superb results. I had a look at the other photos, you seem to be a lucky father. I don't know if your daughter accepts being photographed much. My 3 kids used to flee like sparrows, hence my video period when they were younger. But now they take pleasure at seeing me juggling with my gear :-[ and they don't resent it so much; they just pretend to. PAW5 is not my daughter's eye though. A relative I hadn't seen for years. She's 15 now, and a big girl as I said it already.. My gear? L1 (= Digilux 3 minus Red dot and a couple of $$ ) and D Vario-Elmarit - this is a slight crop - speed must have been around 1/80th, and aperture 5.6 - stab on and ISO is 100. What surprised me most was the renditon of her skin, which I hadn't noticed when shooting for the light in her eye. Thanks again Phil for viewing, commenting, and sharing.. phx Phil Swango wrote: >Ph. Amard wrote: >PAW 05 is now up at : >http://tinyurl.com/2m9gus >=================== > >Very lovely, Philippe.
