It saddens me to forward the news that our good friend and fellow photographer, Matt Quinn, has passed.
As some of you may know, he had been battling cancer for a while and was on his way to recovery.
Please take a moment to remember him in your prayers.

Well the whole key is to start with a super image that is set up to perfection in the studio.........Bahahahaha!! almost embarrassing to show the original image Steve, but for you I bare my soul....I'm all about capturing expressions, however and whenever I can, patience and living in the viewfinder I have found to be very helpful in this regard...for the highlight an shadow enhancement of this photo the process described in this video was most helpful. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fduNNlVd-90) enjoy Steve.

Wow, I'm so glad you showed the original. I assumed you used the car to get a dark photo and might have spent hours trying to reproduce it. Love it! S-

I love 'em both. It's a very cool out-of-the-box treatment of kids, and I like it! I had to look for some time to conclude that I liked it owing to having pictured many, many kids in my day, and then the mandatory rule was kids = light backgrounds, but also have eclectic tastes and this approach works! Kudos! (OK)

Edit: OMG I didn't see the before, failed to notice there was a second page! Now I am even MORE impressed!! :S :clap:
Friends call me Chuck. :photo: This link takes you to my Flickr albums. Please click on any album to scroll through it.
(I prefer to present pictures in albums because I can put them in specific order.)
All the great photographers use cameras! No, really. :|

Wasn't looking to impress Chuck, the hard part is catching the expressions, but thank you...when you don't know the rules you don't feel the limits...
