Messing around

[irish_love]

While my wife and sister-in-law where setting things up for her (sister-in-law's) out door wedding, I decided to take some time out to take some pics. She took her boots off, and I picked them up for this pic. What do you guys think?

Model: NIKON D60
ISO: 100
Exposure: 1/2500 sec
Aperture: f/1.8
Focal Length: 50mm

Not bad; you've got some exposure issues going on with the over-bright highlights on the toes, and the dark area of vines image left. Ideally, a diffuser over the boots, and a fill-light set low and pointing to image left, but, all in all, not bad. Have you thought of trying a mono conversion?

Just my $00.02 worth - your milage may vary.

I agree the highlights are a little too bright and so distracting, but realistically maybe about as good as you could get them on the fly. But I think what is slightly more distracting is that, while the boots aren't on anyone's feet, it appears unnatural for them to be facing toes in. Perhaps because they're stood next to each other, as if someone's feet were in them. I find that to create a subtle unsettling tone to the photograph.

Overall pretty good.
