Outdoor Portrait

[mblanton]

Here is a picture of me that my wife took yesterday at the park. We just bought a stroboframe for our 10D and thought we would try it out. I have several pictures of her and my daughter that I might post later. I would like opinions on posing and lighting. Feel free to add any comments that you like.
We used a 50mm mkII, AV, FEC -1, and I think this shot was at f 2.2.

Hi - it certainly looks like a lovely setting. I'm not sure, but I'm not so keen on the pose - also, there are some distracting highlights.

I'm not great with PS, but here's an attempt to make it look more like the photo I think I would have taken (for better or worse!).

Nice lighting. I'd like to have had the right hand moved so it wasn't cut off.
(Teach your wife to focus on the eyes!) ;-)
