Challenge: Technology III (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-30D
Lens: Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f/2.8 XR Di for Canon
Date: Jul 14, 2012
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 800
Shutter: 1/40
Date Uploaded: Jul 14, 2012

 The only light in this image came from the iPhones and the iPad. If we had 2 iPads I would have used one as a hairlight from behind. Rowan was struggling to keep her arm up and steady as I shot so hers is a bit off from Aimee's, but other than that I am very pleased with this shot. I have kind of shied away from obviously posed images lately but I had this stuck in my head. We are all quite attached to our "smart" ware lately and i thought this made sense.

I should have recognized this as a "too" kid! Way to go Timfy! It was a 9 from me. :)

Aaaahhh, I see your strategy here.... let the kids grow up some to throw the voters off, then start entering again and ribbon :-)

Nice lighting concept and what better model than a cute kid. The smooth editing on the face works with the lighting though ordinarily I would find it way too smooth. Voted earlier.

Neat idea and quality image make this one of my favs.

Technically a great portrait; kid's face is crisp, light is great for this pic. Let us know in your notes if this was only lit by the itouch, iPhone, and iPad. I'm only a third way through, but I would think this would end up in the top ten, if not ribbon (unless you get knocked by Apple haters).

Very well done.

Someone has a smashed nail... :) Seriously though, this is too soft, the alignment is funky/asymmetrical in a bad way, and the noise reduction just kills it. Oh, and I detest Apple. :) Not a bad concept though, I like the idea.

The lighting on this is fantastic! Is it all purely from the deives or is there another light source as well?
