[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 32381, member: 16"] Will.....believe me, I wasn't trying to be offensive at all......just wanted to convey to you what "I" saw in those shots. To me, there's a big difference between "snapshots" and "portraits", and I just don't see those as portraits. You don't learn portrait photography over night. It takes a lot of trial and error to get it right, and even then the learning never ends. :) I've been doing photography for 40 years, and I'm still learning! Don't be discouraged by criticism and comments by me or anyone else. It's all part of the process of improving and perfecting your craft. You're on the right track...........just needs a little more polishing. :) Oh......and everything Helene said is spot on. This lady knows what she's talking about, believe me! :) [/QUOTE]
