    Friends of ours asked me to take a couple of pics for them this afternoon before their baby is due in the next few weeks.

    Not being familiar with shooting people that much (being an avian, wildlife and landscape tog for the most part), I tried some different approaches. This is a 4-exposure HDR and I really liked the outcome. Still gotta show this to them though

    I'm not a regular in this section of BPN but would very much value your input...

    Techs:
    Canon 1000D with 18-55mm IS
    f16 @ ISO-100
    Photomatix HDR, punched back some details from originals with CS3 gradient masks

    Very nice Morkel! Wonderful creativity applied to a portrait. Can't wait to see what you do with the baby pics!
