Love it. How did you do the blurred effect around the edge with the sharpness so perfect on her face? Almost looks like a lensbaby effect.

Great capture David, nice tones.
Al.

Soo cute David. Love the feeling that she's moving too. Great job with getting those eyes! :)

favorite. instant favorite.

Lovely expression and very well composed, David. I like the color tone, as well. Very nice!


David Hofmann   {K:23830} 6/28/2005
thanks Amanda! I'm a big fan of that look (face in focus everything else soft) I just used the lens wide open (f/1.4) which makes the DOF very shallow. I think the way she is leaning forward and the focus on her face makes everything else really blurry. Some movement might have added some motion blur.

Its that sharp/soft contrast in photos that I like a lot and the 50 mm fully open lens is just perfect for that.


David Hofmann   {K:23830} 6/28/2005
thanks Alison, my daughter gives me so many good moments I'd be a fool not to capture them. :)


David Hofmann   {K:23830} 6/28/2005
thanks a lot Klifton!


David Hofmann   {K:23830} 6/28/2005
thanks Cheryl, I took a couple of motion photos with very long exposure that night. That was one of the few were she was hold half way steady :)


David Hofmann   {K:23830} 6/28/2005
thanks so much Dina!


David Hofmann   {K:23830} 6/28/2005

Just one more reason I want an SLR and a 50mm lens! Love the colors, too!!:)

Gorgeous soft tones and partial desaturation. Very classic style. Thanks David for your comments.

more wonderful tones. very cute picture.


Pat Fruen   {K:12073} 7/2/2005
I love the desaturated colors here and the way her face is framed by her arms and that, well, whatever it is. :). Very nice shot.


Trish McCoy   {K:16519} 7/2/2005
totally gorgeous. I love the colors here. that little face is just darling.


Krista Chamberlain   {K:1003} 7/6/2005
What a beautiful little girl David. Great capture too! I love the colors, so soft. It suits her look, sweet and innocent, but is she really? Sweet and innocent that is. I have two girls, they look sweet and innocent, but boy can looks be decieving
Congrats.
Krista
