From: "jtainter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > I rephotographed her in the shade without the flash, at f4.0. This is much better. And this time I didn't add unsharp mask. Please suggest what else I should do before I make some prints.
One thing you may consider is creating a second layer in Photoshop and applying a blur to her skin. I don't have it handy but I'm sure this technique has been covered in several of the photo mags. If you can do a reshoot, there's a second option. If you have a 50/1.7 or 1.4 (with *istD), shoot her in open shade with that about f2 making sure to only focus on the eyes. The majority of her skin will out of focus and rendered pretty smoothly. > I suppose one should always be prepared for such an occasion -- lights, bouncers, reflectors, backdrops, and assistants, all on hand at all times. Exactly! What were you thinking??? <g> Mark
