Default Baby in the Leaves
Today I took advantage of the unusually nice November weather to play with my new Sony DSLR and my 7 month old daughter. These two shots were taken late in the afternoon in the shadow of the house with the camera set in the "auto" mode.

I like the way the baby's light clothing stands out against the background of the leaves, but I wonder if I should have used a fill flash or a reflector. I'm never much of a fan of on camera flash and don't know how one is supposed to wrangle a baby and reflector at the same time!

These photos (and more) are on my Flickr page.

Very cute! I loved the one of her looking up so much that I couldn't help doing a little re-edit to make those gorgeous blue eyes "pop" I hope you don't mind, if you do let me know and I'll take it down. And welcome to DPS, looking forward to seeing more from you!!

The photo edit is beautiful! We haven't learned how to do that yet, so thanks for the inspiration!
