Well, the fairest of them all would be my wife, but she was ignoring me and wouldn't turn around... This was from a trip to the Mediterranean coast several years ago.

Looks like you got the correct exposure for this shot and the K-5 performed admirably for you. It would have been nice for her to face the mirror, but you know, photographers are always lagging behind to try and get one more shot. Nicely captured, Todd.

Reminds me of when I'm being actively ignored by my wife - which happens rather often. Fun shot, Todd.

Great setting, great lighting, and an uncooperative model...!
I've offered more money to my model, but she does exactly the same thing: "Git your bothersome camera outa here!"
Why do they tell us they're glad we have a great hobby, but won't sit for us?
Very entertaining image you posted!

Absolutely love the setting, the colours, the lighting was perfect, you nailed it, pity about the wife.....I would have honestly left her out of it....spoils the effect! Great shot otherwise..

Thanks Mike! It was just one of those random shots taken while vacationing. I was pleased that I was able to hold the camera steady enough to get a decent result.

Thanks Jer! Yes, my wife has that down to an art, particularly when I am walking around with my camera.

Thanks Angky! Maybe I embarrass her with my constantly taking photos.

Thanks for your very nice comment Shelly! Not sure how that would have been received if I had asked her to move.
