Interesting title. I suppose there are improper portraits, then <grin>?
Available light is always something wonderful. Even though I must use flash many times, the directional available light, such as you had, can be great to work with. That being said, this light seems just a little strong - based on viewing her shoulder near the scarf. For the future, it would be good to try to diffuse the light just a little more. Where the light and shadows fall is good and shows her face off pretty well. Biggest tip to give you is to shoot a lot and experiment with the light. Good start here. -- Best regards, Bruce Monday, October 2, 2006, 4:50:17 PM, you wrote: MH> http://www.michaelhamilton.ca/images/jocelynshort5-1window.jpg MH> I've been taking a portraiture course through my local community MH> college.
