Hello,

today I had a very nice session with my daughter Leslie (left) and her friends.
The girls had fun too. This was one of the few moments there were not talking to each other...

Hi martin - this is a nice candid kind of shot of these pretty young ladies. Really like the natural expressions caught on their faces complementing the nice soft tones and colors ... well balanced and properly exposed.

Nice work martin =)

Before I clicked on the thumbnail, Martin I thought "ah ha! This will be a challenge!"

The challenge in taking a shot of multiple faces in a succession away from the camera is finding a deep enough field of focus so that all eyes are sharp.

Unfortunately, you have not acheived that here. The third-furthest girl is the sharpest, the others are all in various degrees of un-focus.

I would suggest a much smaller aperture in order to keep everyone in the shot sharp.

While the picture is a splendid candid capture I must admit the small F-stop is not helping to achieve sharpness across the frame and some of their pretty faces are out of focus. A larger F stop would allow greater depth of field and enable you to achieve a better focused group portrait.
