Response to Critique: Mother & Son w/blankie

from Tom Hammer (xanthan@bayarea.net)
Thank you all for some valuble critical feedback, particularly Barry and Tom.

Wayne, I'm not sure what technical details you're looking for, but I think the only thing I've left out was exposure, which was f8 @ 1/60.

Tom, your analysis of the lighting is dead-on and *really* helpful. That is exactly the kind of information I was hoping to receive with this posting. Thanks for the key learning. I think moving the softbox 30 degrees toward the camera would make a big difference. I've posted another shot from the same session, that I'm less fond of. Its got my wife looking directly at the camera, which I think makes the picture more engaging, but the lighting is even harsher suffering from maladies you've already diagnosed. Again, thanks for the feedback everyone.

-- Tom
