Phil, another excellent shot. This one is my favourite of the series with a nice natural smile, great DOF and crisp details with perfect lighting. Well done!
Cheers, Todd

Merry Christmas to you too Phil and your pretty wife and children (if you have).

Beautiful moments of life are always cherrished and they make someone to recall the good time. The picture in view is well taken and I beleive it one of your rejoice moments - is it?

Thanks for sharing smiles, well done.

Nice composition and a smile that warms up the cold winter day. I think this might have been even better if we could see her eyes. The background is really light and interesting, with its bokeh and strong colors and I find my eyes drifting over there, rather than to her face. I think it's because of the sunglasses. She's just, you might say, losing out to the light of day. Maybe something to think about with this kind of portrait. Thanks for sharing. -Hugh

Merry Chritmas to you!

hello Philip,
good picture, with nice background and good colors. Your outside series is very well composed.
merry christmas to you too!

What a lovely natural looking portrait of your wife. She is very lovely. Her smile is friendly and I like the casual, slightly wind-blown look and the red scarf. Nice background colours too.
Cheers Joan

Merry Christmas to you too!
This is a very nice portrait. Her expression is really sweet.
I would have liked a little more detail in the darker areas and a lower crop as well. Nonetheless, a very nice shot, Philip!
All the best / Eric
