I'm still playing with "artistic" blow-out, using the camera instead of post-processing. I took this shot of my daughter, Natalie, blowing bubbles. Aperture 2.8 and Shutter Speed of 1/150th. I turned up the flash as well, hoping for a dramatic result. Any thoughts?



I took this one of her sister, Cassidy, a while back, using the same technique.

Super shots, especially the first one! (although I'm a huge fan of this technique)

:)

edit: now that I see you are Michael Jackson I must recommend that you stop taking photos of children... :)

I very much like both shots and I think you've managed some crisp, clean results with good tonal range.

I would perhaps try to dodge and burn the images to deepen shadow areas and lighten those which are too dark (such as the chair in the second shot).

Both are good, but the first one is a little better. I think it's because of the color of her clothes and hair.

I love that technique!
