Informal Shot (Part III)

[Digital]

To begin with I do not like this pic, I was shooting wide open. As a result it was not as sharp as I would like it to be; however it did tend to soften the facial features which I like. The background is to busy.
C&C very much welcomed. Thanks, Bruce

I scaled down the exposure in PP. Is this any better? Bruce

Bruce, I think the softened features of the first work best. The hair in the second looks best. Can you just reduce the exposure on the hair and background?

George, thanks for the comment. I think what I am going to do is re-shoot this lady. I should have followed my first instinct to postpone this shoot because of the lighting.
This lady is a fellow church member so there is no problem in doing a re-shoot.

Set her against a plain background, the stuff there is just way too distracting.

Ian, I could not agree with you more. Thanks for the comment.
