Dreamy Nora

First attempt at high key photography... Critiques, and tips are welcome! This was a bit of a struggle, especially as I was the one holding Nora so I used my tripod and self-timer. I know I can do better, but I like Nora's expression.

For this week's Get Pushed Challenge: http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/14244/get-pushed-week-8. Jo pushed me to "... see if you can have a go at a High Key photograph."

Another try for a high key selfie: http://365project.org/kph129/extras/2012-09-10

I need to start doing some of these 'get pushed' challenges. You're coming up with some amazing photographs, Kristin! Well done - great shot!

[Kristin]

@ktchpmn ~ Thanks Katie. Yeah, I'm having fun with the get pushed challenges - they do really push me! Gives some direction too if you're struggling for inspiration.

I had to look up what "high key" was?! I think you achieve it really well here, personally not my cup of tea, she is such a gorgeous baby and the harsher lighting, for me I think you lose that a little. I like softer.
But hey, for the get pushed challenge ~ AWESOME!!

So cute, lovely shot

You have some great shots in your album! I really like this one and it's not easy to do solo! You've got my follow, too. Make me proud ;)

[Kristin]

@slang ~ I'll do my best!

[Lesley Chisholm]

I like it, you've done this really nicely.

It is amazing to see what people accomplish by taking part in this challenge. Love what you achieved - it certainly inspires me to try something like this.

Beautiful angle. Sweet expression of your daughter. I need to try high key myself.

This is lovely. I don't know much about high key but I love this shot.
