Sorry I have to de-lurk on this one and I'll pay for it both here at home and on the screen, although on the screen the chances are limited I'll see any Reponses! However, if she who must be obeyed catches me screwing around here, let alone saying anything and being on the screen quite frankly I'll be in deep shit! Basically for the moment I have been ordered to take life easy. But damn it, this is the stupidest comment on a picture of a child that happens in split-seconds and your telling the photographer he should ... >>>reflect some light into her face to lessen the shadows under her eyes and separate her pupils a bit from her irises.<<< I'm sorry that's bull shit when it's an instant of happening and the great reaction of a fine photographer who grabs the instant moment. Hell if you were shooting under identical conditions and you'd shot this, you'd have been only too glad you had a photograph as good as this. OK if you are messing around on a "studio shoot" and have exactly every bit of control I might agree with your comments. But let's get real and realize this is a split second life moment and a grab shot! But surely under the circumstance of a quick instant moment and you're suggesting correcting light? Get real, life isn't like that in uncontrolled life moments! Your comment is bloody nonsense under the circumstances, although well meaning!! ted
