Wonderful set, especially the ones with the first two with their reflections.

Thanks guys. The reflections were so strong the camera kept jumping the eye focus onto the reflection so I had to keep making it jump back to the real image lol. Lighting was nice as I got out a touch earlier before it got overhead.

I am finding more and more I am thinking about the ISO values and what I can do to bring them done. In my case its mostly lowering the shutter speed as the lens is already slow so not much wiggle room there. Also trying to think about the scene. Capturing his feet or a shadow etc. Still so much to learn but its a process not a race.
