Default Windy Beach Portraits

I took a family trip away for a few days to the beach. Lovely weather, although it got a little windy late in the day. I snapped these shots of my kids just on sunset. The gusty winds were blowing my daughter's hair about and I don't have any without some hair across her face.

No.1


No.2

Beautiful children you have here, and two very nice captures. I think they would look good with a bit more contrast, but that is just me. otherwise, i love them

I saw these the other day and somehow forgot to comment on them.

Two great shots. I particularly like how soft the light is in the shot of your daughter. I wish the shot of your son was just a touch brighter, as his hair seems a bit underexposed and lacking in a bit of detail.

Well done. Those will serve as great memories from the trip, I'm sure.

[edit: Looking at these shots on another monitor your son's hair looks closer to what I'd expect to see. Guess it's time to recheck screen calibrations again.]
