Maybe Here?
Lens: DA*50-135 Camera: K5 Photo Location: Texas ISO: 80 Shutter Speed: 1/90s Aperture: F6.7 
Posted By: Rupert, 11-08-2012, 07:10 AM

I posted this over on the Critique Forum, but I didn't get much response (appreciated what I did get!). For some reason, it is one of my favorite Shelby shots.....am I all alone?

The DXO FIlmPak3 version just hits me right, maybe I have weird taste?


Original color version.....

DXO version



PhotoScape version......If you don't have this free program, you should! It is fantastic fun, and very capable too!

Haven't shot a Squirrel in ages, or even a fine Raccoon......my little studio is consuming all my time. Maybe I will get tired of lovely young ladies and get out and about to shoot some wildlife......maybe not!

Regards!

Good portrait as is Rupert. She might be pouting her lips just a tad.

I like the original as well. And... I agree with Ash about her lips. Not a big fan of the "Duckbill" lip thing.

Thanks for looking guys! I'm glad you liked at least one version! That "pouty" look....it is her favorite for some reason.....and I have a hard time convincing her to give a big smile........but she will if I push a little, and I always do!

Smile Shelby!

In the first set I like the DXO version. Having said that, I love her smile. Hopefully you can convince her to do it more often.

She has a pretty smile. I like it better than the pouty smile.

Thanks again guys! Yes Bob...we have some pretty girls here in Texas, I wish I could shoot them all, but I do take what I can get!

Bigted/Rockmaster.....I will be shooting Shelby this afternoon, Fridays are "practice day" and I will let her read your comments....this will make that smile come a little easier......she does not like her smile...but I keep telling her it is gorgeous, so I thank you for your comments!

Thanks again for viewing and your comments, they are always appreciated by old Rupert!

Regards!

The color version wins for me too Rupert but I also like the DXO version. I agree about the pout though; the smile is sooooo much better.

Thank you Susan! I do love the DXO version, not sure why, but I do. It needs a little work as suggested over in the Critique Forum, but it is still my favorite of the two.
I'll let Shelby read your reply too, she does have a lovely smile, and she needs to use it to her advantage more often.

Best Regards!
