My blue-eyed girl . . . - a photo on Flickriver

This started a few months ago as a 'weekly challenge' among a few friends. Although it was really good as a learning experience, my results were pretty ordinary.
I grabbed my daughter yesterday & thought I'd give it another go.
She has astounding colour in her eyes & I had high hopes.

I think the result this time around is fantastic, even if I say so myself :-)

Press 'L' for a slightly larger view.

Strobist:Single hand-held off-camera Metz 58 AF-2 flash; LumiQuest soft box; Hahnel TF combi trigger; very low power, held on top of the lens, very close to her face. Manual flash & camera.

Like me at my Facebook page - M-Photographic. I put some other stuff there :-)
