lol Thanks!

Thanks for that Phamster. Ordering that soon!

Don't remember the power settings but 430EX camera left shot through umbrella and bare 580EX outside shooting in. Still pretty new to the OCF stuff so bear with me.

This was a quick one of my parents taken the other day. I used a fill flash from below and to the right. Pretty new with OCF but I love it.

It's hip to be square!!!

I like your crop and lightpole edit but I agree it has lost it's punch.

Pham, it's bugging me, wth is that orange spot/ball to the left of her nose mouth area. lol The more I look, it seems as if see is looking at something suspended in air.

Yeah, I just noticed I smudged down the clarity which softened it a bit. I really think the only thing I would change is the crop. Which is cool, cause you can show the customer both, and then maybe they buy both!

More money for Pham!!!

They're wearing soccer shoes...haha it's kinda sad I know the names and prices of these shoes (I work at a soccer shop...apparently for far too long haha).

I like the second one a lot. The contrast in the sweater is great.

so how much are the umbros and puma's? ha ha

slicer, that is probably a car red lens, or a house.. just behind the leaves are homes and cars..

simple cloning can help.. but i am quite sure the parents are never ever going to see that..
