Nice pics.
I do have a question about the eye reflections. (I'm stuck on eye reflections now).
The reflections in some of these images is quite prominent.
What type of lighting do you use?

For these, and with all my shots that big light bulb in the sky is my light source. Though in the near future i'm planning on picking up a MT-24EX for those pesky dark shots that a high ISO just doesn't work for
