[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
She's a soft cool rain on a hot summer’s day.
She makes me laugh with the funny things she has to say.

She's the beat of my heart, and the air that I breathe.
She's the sun and the wind, and autumn’s golden leaves.

She's the pride that I feel when I know she's done what’s right.
She's that warm feeling I get, when I remember tucking her in at night.

She is homework and sports, and a busy social life.
She has this beautiful smile that could light the darkest night.

She is the scared feeling I have when she stays out late.
Or the feeling that I am losing her, when she wants to date.

She's the mixed emotions I have, as I watch her mature and grow.
I tell myself she will never leave, but, I know in my heart that someday she will go.

-------------------

another mood of my Divija, light is natural coming through the door and the sofa has been cloned out from the back.
hope you will like her play with hair.

regards
Manuj Mehta

Hello Manuj! Nice scene, very funny portrait. Good capture and perfect exposure. Well done!

Good Morning Manuj,

A very interesting portrait.
Very direct gaze.
I love how you have managed to light one side of her face and yet the corresponding b/g is in shadow, and visa versa. It produces a real chequerboard effect.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hello,

Hi Manuj,

An impresive portrait!
A perfectly taken shot with perfect light and the expressions on the face of your daughter are just awesome. She looks very cute especially at her age, boldly facing the camera...great language of coordination between both of you (dad-daughter)!
Simply wonderful capture! Very well done.

Thanks for sharing your personal momments.

regards,
Paras Bhalla

wonder why you didnt present it in portrait format. the empty space on both sides, didnt add much imo

Olá Manuj,
You are right my fiend, it's the vision of an angel.
Marvelous portrait.

Hi Manuj,
Congratulations with this great photo !!
Really high quality Very good colors and softness. greetings,
khawr

I'm not sure about the expression captured, maybe the wrong timing. What I want to express is that the hand on the face is not the perfect moment, even it is cute. On the other hand, the light is good.

Hello Manuj,
Divija playing with her hair covered her face but it is compensated by a most engaging eye contact. Love the expression. Effective lighting, the image is sharp. And most of all cuteness factor is sky high. Give Divija a big hug for me. Best regards...

Hi Manooj,

Lovely light, lovely capture with complete details, excellent body language.

But still comes 3 things in mind,
1, left hand side cheek of the princess is too dark against the right hand side as this I know the hand is in between.
2, the hand is a distraction here.
3, why shot it in horizontal, instead this will be quite nice in vertical.

dear Manuj mehta
she does not look a child...
in my feeling, maybe she is natural model,,,or you find excellent essence in her.
lighting and colors are perfect,
her pose and your composition are also superb.
and she shows us both angel and devil in child's mind...it is natural.
thank you,
Akihisa

Hello Manuj
Divija is such a adorable kid! beautiful eyes she has!
Perfect sharpness, the hand in front of her face holding her "lat" look too good and shows the playful mood of child :)

Very fine use of light the dark area added to the beauty of portrait (IMO)

A very fine capture but at the same time i do agree with others about the portrait orientation :)

Ciao Manuj


A an excellent portrait lens.
Splendid cropped, I like not the more cropped above,
you did this wonderful.
Composition and colours are pleasant for look at.

Best regards,

Sergio

i like the light in your daughter's face but the pose is so simple.. i'm not so sure either about the hand but if she hiding behind something maybe it will be different story but this her tiny hand holding her hair.. anyway nice try, Manuj..

as for your note of course that's how usually description of Daddy's little girl :)) tfs..

regards, terry
