Perhaps you could either use a longer lens or shallower depth of field? Looks like the pop up flash on camera was used as well. The fill light is overly harsh and overdone. Shadows are too harsh as well. 5D3 | 16-35L | 45 TS-E | 50L | 85L | 100L | 135L | 24-70L | 70-200 II L | 580s | Zero, TT & Crumplers | and an X100!

Apr 19, 2010 16:25 | #10 it looks like you used fillflash, may i suggest a wider aperture and no flash at all?...seems like it was a bright enough day to be able to do this with plenty of shade from the trees around them, also it wouldnt hurt if you attempted to process these a little more than just a B&W preset, just to make them pop more...keep up the practice, shooting bellies is soooo much fun!

Also watch for busy backgrounds - poles, wires, trees really distract from subjects.
