My goodness ... they grow so fast
Posted By: Mechan1k, 04-26-2008, 12:54 AM

Here's a few of my nieces I recently took.

I have been having fun with my Sigma 28-70 EX DF f/2.8 lens ... and Sigma EF 530 DG Super flash. It's amazing what P-TTL with swivel and bounce head can do ... I still have a lot to learn when it comes to flash photography ... but for now this is miles better than pop-up flash.

Thanks everyone.
I was thinking of making some slight lighting adjustments to the last 2 (as they are uploaded straight from the camera).
My PC is offline at home ... but thank goodness for Photobuckets new editing software ... it can help a little.

I am trying to get as many photos of the little ones in the family at the moment ... and build an album up of them growing up (date/time stamped everytime i get to shoot them).

Both my sisters-in-law have cute girls ... and now both of them are pregnant again (one of them has found she is having twins as well) .... so there will be more little one around. Plus my wife and I are looking at starting a family soon as well. There's going to be kids everywhere at Christmas time.

OK ... I have edited the last 2 images slightly.
A little bit of a crop to remove some distracting items ... and a slighy change in curves/saturation to bring it up to the right levels.
