And yet another.. {Photography}

Needed to run errands this a.m. and so our school day started late today, but it all got done and that's what's important.

Tried another few shots of Miss A around the same time this evening as the ones I took yesterday and worked on getting it metered correctly - I posted it on the same photography forum I've been haunting lately and got one reply so far that said "Perfect. I think your exposure looks great." - it's only one person, but hey, at this point, I'll take it and am thrilled since I've seen some of this person's work and it's be-you-tee-full.

Anywho, I took 3 shots of Miss A with Miss Baby watching and that was all Miss Baby would have of me not paying attention to her :) Nothing like trying to concentrate on your camera settings w/a baby screaming at you...ah well, another day, another opportunity perhaps. I'm happy w/this improvement...now, to work on CONSISTENCY...and a world of other fun photog. stuff like white balance, consistent focus, considering getting a grey card...backlighting, more creative poses ;) composition....and more and more and more....

Ok, already? Here's the shot...

Looks good! Does the color of the shirt make any difference? I just saw you have 12 followers! When did that happen? :)

Hey - I don't know how that happened w/the "followers" - weird, eh? But, kind of fun!

Anywho - I think you may be right, the red shirt in the prior pics definitely would make the overall image look a touch different than the navy shirt in the last - good thinking! I was trying to keep the "pose" so to speak consistent in the others so I could see the changes in her skin tone and didn't think about getting her to change into another red shirt... to keep that consistent as well! :) Anyway! Thanks :)
