the B/W picture is awesome but the colored ones are a bit overexposed.
anytime when you look at the histogram while viewing the picture in the camera ... any blinking white/black areas usually mean that part is over/underexposed. so if its blinking white means the black area of the picture is overexposed and if its blinking black that would be other way around.

btw, it must be nice to have a very cooperative wife. mine won't allow me to take pix of her :'(

the first three seem a little soft to me.. and the shirts blown out on the first three, but the last one looks really good. nailed the focus and DOF. however the dark blur on the right side of the picture distracts me from the overall shot a little bit

Thanks for the comments! FWIW, the histogram isn't blown out in the originals. In PP, I upped the exposure on the first 3 quite a bit, which is most likely the cause. I seem to be prone to super bright PP.

I agree
