Having fun

Just some fun photos I thought I'd share from yesterday.

Feel free to give C&C, although, with the exception of the last two, they were just snapped. The last two (portraits), were spur of the moment. I saw the light on his face and thought,"I have to use that!".

Nice shots, especially nice panning in number 1, and great expression in number 4

I like the portraits, so full of colour.

The light was gorgeous, but I hadn't really noticed. Then, as we were walking along, I turned back to look at him as he came out of shadow so I just told him to stop were he was.

I was thinking they looked a tad overcooked myself, but it could have been the light, I had a similar experience with film several years ago when the greens of the trees and a nearby fence looked positively radioactive

Ted, I just opened the last shot up in PS and dropped the saturation slider to -15 and the image looked (to my eyes) much better, the glow from the light was still there and the skin tones looked much more natural.

Still good captures though.
