I'm surprised no one pointed this out, but...it's very obvious that you blurred the background with photoshop, because you missed some spots around the dad's back & shoulder, and got some spots of his hair that would not naturally be blurred like that. |

I agree with what was said below. |

I am going to give you some honest, critical feedback here. The only way I have improved is from people pointing things out to me that I could not 'see' myself....
1) The shot suffers from perspective distortion. I am guessing it is from using a short focal length. Ideal for portraits is around 85mm. See how the little boy's head is larger than his dad's?
2) Blown highlights- See how the shoulder of the dad, the boy's hair, and the background have lost detail due to being overexposed?
3)I am wondering if you used a softening filter in the post processing. The mom looks like she was shot through a piece of glass or something. See how the boy looks much sharper?
4) The angle is not pleasing, IMO. It would look better if your lens was up a little higher...perhaps level with the eyes of the little girl.
5)Your pose is decent. You did a good job connecting your subjects and not having gaps between them.
6) You did a good job getting a good expression on all their faces.
Hope that helps some :) |
