Always wanted to do this :)

I'm pretty excited with how this came out

I love it OP Great shot!

Very nicely done. I am still trying to figure out if people are facing the sun or away from the sun. That's the best part.

 

[Buckster]

Well done! I really love this!

 

[Derrel]

Yes, it came out pretty nicely. Nice posing on the group too. A nice progression of heights, tapering from the center and out to each edge.

 

[TenaciousTins]

That's really cool!

Pretty sure the people are facing towards the camera, away from the sun. I love it!

Well done!

Based on the positioning of the legs of the second person from the left, I am guessing that they are FACING the sun and away from the camera.

They were up on a hill facing me, with the sun behind them

And so you should be. It is a very, very nice picture. Based on this one shot, I would hire you to shoot my family portrait.




There is only one little detail that bugs me and before I tell you what it is, let me tell you that (if you don't know me) a lot of people here consider me a big pain in the neck. So, take what I'm going to say however you want to take it, you won't hurt my feelings.

I am a huge fan of details control. Not because I care all that much but because they seem to jump at me.

In this case, your photo, it is the weird thing growing out of the leg of the child/kid on the very left. I would zap it.

Very nice shot!
I could tell they were facing the camera by looking at the ears of the male in the center and the body position of the female 2nd from the left. That would have been an awkward position looking away. Must be my law enforcement background.

It's funny that little guy found a stick and he wouldn't let it go haha! Yes I may just clone that out . Thank you for the compliment I'm a newbie so that really does make me happy!

I'm glad I'm making your day but the stick is not what I'm talking about.

I did wonder about that but it doesn't bother me as much as the thing growing out of his leg towards the right. The thing that looks like a big lens.
