Girls?

Here are a few shots from the first annual POTN invasion of the Bristol, WI Renaissance Fair. Is there any wonder why I love these events?

Great shots. The second one looks a little overexposed, at least on her dress. I can't tell too reliably on this laptop. They also look a little flat. Otherwise, great photos and a great concept;)

I think that's an accurate statement. These girls were selling beer and such from booths with overhanging roofs, so there was more light around waist level than on their faces. I tried to even this out will fill flash, which I believe helped quite a bit.

for shots like this I generally try to adjust the RAW file to keep faces properly exposed and if some white clothing gets blown I don't let it bother me too much.

Thanks for taking the time to comment!

Nice shots...I need to work on my appearent inability to approach a stranger and ask if I can take their picture.

I'm thinking about going back next weekend for more practice. :)
