Natasha in B&W

Photographers Comments
this is my grand daughter Natasha who is 9 and has a lovely smile. I took this in colour and then converted to Black & White

John Nice candid of a nice girl, would like to have seen pin sharp eyes, in my early days on here i posted a picture of my daughter and got the same comment. Since then i make sure my focus point is right on the eye, its a bit dark top right but you were using the on camera flash on a compact by the looks and that happens. I have just done a quick tweak to the levels to try and bring out the detail in the shade and artificially sharpened the eyes and slightly whitened the teeth.

A well captured moment. Natural and fun looking and her personality really shines through very well indeedy. Dennis has mentioned the flash and for me also this is a bit front-on and harsh ... it's amazing the difference that a flash from one side and bit of reflecting white card on the can make

Cheers, Dave B.
