Candid Portraits in the Park C&C

    Went out for a walk in Deer Park with my girlfriend last night, and of course I brought my camera along. Took a couple candid portraits because it was really nice light. Realized after the fact that I had left my camera at ISO1600. D'oh! Also my first attempt at doing grayscale conversions... be gentle, but firm :)

    This first one was my favourite of all the ones I took - she had looked away, I shot her while looking away and then she looked back like "Are you still shooting?" - a bit blown out in the face, but I liked the effect.

    The bottom right has a bit of lost detail in this one... I also had a bit of trouble getting some nice contrast out of it.

    The expression in the first one is priceless. I've seen that look before :-)
    Bit too blown out for me, but yes I do see the look.

    I like the first one but i would crop out some of the dark on the left, probably to about way through the tree. Did you use any noise reduction? Images dont seem to bad for ISO1600.

    Oh yeah... I also Noise Ninjaed them (but since I don't really know how to use it yet, just auto-noise-reduction) before converting to B&W.
