lindseydy - LOVE LOVE LOVE the sunflare picture!! It is wonderful!+

--cherry. - hey angela! these are awesome as usual ;) the color and clarity are remarkable!! Wish i had shots of my family like this...just beautiful!!

admin - Carol, thank you so much for the kind words. I'm so happy that my work could be an inspiration to you!

Carol - Sigh. **Another** lens added to my wish list...only 175 days or so till Christmas, right? Angela, you inspired me to go to Cheekwood today and try again. I **think** I have 2 or 3 that might be acceptable. She's into NOT looking at the camera no matter what stage. Thanks for inspiring all of us to try to capture more "moments".

admin - Thank you Tammy and Carol! Here are my settings: I shot with my 85mm 1.8 lens on my D300. SS: varried from 1/500 to 1/1250 F-Stop: 1.8 on all but the sunflare shots and those were at 2.8 ISO: 200

Carol - Was this at PWP? Do you mind sharing your lens/aperture/shutter speed info? I can't seem to shoot my two year old at slower shutter speed (duh, wonder why) but I LOVE your depth of field. Amazing how all your "subjects" cooperate; you must have great rapport!!!

Tammy - Oh I love your big photos posted on here. your work is soo nice. Love the flare also ++
