Hi!
Thanks Shel. It's the DA 16-45 @ 28mm focal length. The stop is f8, the shutter is 1/30th. I had the Sigma 500 Super flash mounted with the omnibounce reflector that splits the light between the reflector and the ceiling 20/80. So the main light is overhead with fill coming from the camera and some backlight from the doorwall window behind Grace. The ratio of fill to overhead is close to minus one stop in practice because the reflector is much closer here than the ceiling. It's shot RAW, converted with only small increase in temperature, a slight reduction in exposure and increase in brightness and contrast. I sharpened it in the converter (due to sheer laziness) to 65 and converted it to a 144 meg 16-bit tiff. I cropped it to remove extra space in the left of frame and cloned out a toy that was on the floor behind Grace. I saved a 45 meg 8-bit file for printing, then resized it in PhotoShop (Binary Sharper) for the web. I added a bit of USM to the web image (90%, 1 pixel, threshold 11). I'll probably clone out some of the background if I make a print.
Thanks for the lesson. Boris
