Love the expressions here and dig the comp - beautiful family!
Skin tones are quite good here to my eye, if I'm getting real picky, all 3 faces could be brightened by 5-10% but their tone looks decent.
Sharpness wise though - this image is a bit soft. Hopefully it is because you uploaded at more than 275k (and the softness is due to compression) - but I'm not convinced this is the case.
What was the focal length and the shutter speed here?
I posted it through photobucket via my phone, it did get compressed. I uploaded it to Flickr via my computer and re-posted it, much better. My wife's eyes are a little soft.Quote:

Looks like a good balance between foreground and background. The background has a nice amount of blur too. If I had to nit pick I would say soften the light a smidge. All things being said, this is a very good photo.
Yes, this looks much better! It's going in the family album, right? :)
Very Very nice job. I really like this. If I were to be super picky I would point out the small hot spots on 2 of the noses. From memory I think you use Gimp for PP, and I dont know that program at all, but in Photoshop the spot healing brush tool would take these out pretty quickly. If not the clone tool would probably work as well.
AT your portraiture has come on leaps and bounds in the time I have been on the forum.
I use mostly Lightroom now.Quote:
