nice work!.... geez Marko............ what do you work for E-talk or something? you seem to be able to hob knob with elite cdn musicians quite frequently..
Great bunch of photos, really outstanding works.
Thanks Travis - just getting lucky I guess.
PKMax - I love that photo of your cheeky daughter! :highfive:
This is my daughter. Yes I broke lots of rules, high noon, shadows etc. But this is about the only portrait that I have taken this month that I like.
This is a portrait of a really sweet golden retriever who belongs to one of our neighbors.
Baby S here. I purposefully set the soft focus to balance the harder shadowing I wanted - Did I do ok on the eyes? :fingerscr

You caught the baby's expression perfectly along with a highlight in each of the eyes. What I don't see is a separation between the pupil and the colour area of the eye so he/she must have dark eyes. The shadow at the left hand side also portrudes into the eye area slightly which is not ideal. I would lighten the left white area of that eye in post.
The challenge is to determine what to keep sharp and what to soften. I am not sure that I would take the same approach as you, but on the other hand, I do not see a perfect approach either.
And before anyone else: AWWWWWW, What a cutie! :):)
