Candid portraits

[OmlessWanderer]

C&C please. Thanks for looking.

#1

#2

#3 I tried to balance the colors in this one but it's still a little yellow... Any suggestions?

 

[OmlessWanderer]

Anyone?

They just look like snapshots. No. 2 and 3 seem to be very low in quality too. Although I really like the composition and content of 3.

Are #1 and #2 candids?

Are #1 and #2 candids?

Yeah, I picked my camera up and they looked over to see what I was doing and *click*.

 

[MichaelMigz]

they do look a little bit too candid. if they were mine, i would look at them as snapshots...

Not a fan of the flash in the first one.

 

[JustAMom]

just snapshots to me sorry.

 

[OmlessWanderer]

Thanks for the input. I'm gonna go hide now... About the flash in the first one, there was none. It was just ambient light and a chandelier.

In No1 there's a harsh shadow behind the subjects head. This is generally what a flash shadow looks like although it may be there was another light casting that shadow coming from in front of the subject.

Looks like flash though? You sure it was off?

Yeah, the only flash I have right now is the built in pop-up and I never use it. I learned pretty quickly that on camera direct flash is ugly.
