She was soooo cute, her blonde hair and blue eyes !

She loved the bubbles, it was a nice afternoon at the park :

sure :)

EOS 5DMK 11
24-70 f2.8L

ISO : 200
f/2.8
1/250s

:) I probably didn't nail the focus as much as I would have liked to, I was toggling the focus points, and she kept moving, fast ! I had to chase her !

Beautiful series, nice composition and colours but I find my eye is drawn to the cut off hand in 3 & 5. However no knows more than me that it is extremely difficult when toddlers take off.

Glad to see you are having lots of sunshine in Sydney - just rain, rain, and more rain here!!

Nice shots-I like #4 the most. Even though her blue eyes are nice, I like the B&W more for some reason.

I love the processing in 1! The colors are amazing!

it is not easy to get the definition, color and reflectivity of bubbles in this sort of shot, but they are an important part of this shot and you NAILED IT, Sista!!! Great work, as always.

very nice!
may i ask, where do you lock your focal point onto when shooting this type of shot at 2.8 so you can get both eyes so in focus? typically i pick whichever eye is closer to me or the bridge of their nose but thought i'd ask

Thankyou everyone !

Thankyou :) I find that i works best if you have a darker background when working with bubbles.

I toggled the focus point between her eyes :) I always do, no matter what kind of shots I am taking :)
