Brother and Sister

Posted by Melissa W. (Warsaw, Indiana, United States) on 29 February 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

I might be a bit biased, but I love they way they're looking at each other. He had just walked over to his sister to see what was going on before he left to play with some nearby rocks.

They're very photogenic.
I love the soft focus.
You really captured the bond that siblings have with one another.
Nicely done.

This is a great, expressive photo. The kids' faces tell a story.

Melissa, really sweet shot! Is this 50 mm lens a prime lens?

29 Feb 2008 2:16pm

@Ron: Yes, it's the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM. It's my favorite lens (granted, I only have one other lens besides this one). This lens rarely leaves my camera. My other lens is a Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS that came with the camera, but I don't like it as well as the 50mm. I'm currently saving for the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM (I've heard that is a great portrait lens), but I'm also considering the Sigma and Tamron equivalents due to my budget. Any suggestions?

Thanks again, Ron. :)

Craiger from Vacaville, California, United States

The great thing about children is they haven't developed the egos we adults have. They know how to be themselves and their expressions show it! Great shot Melissa!

@Craiger: I never thought about it like that, you're right. Thanks, Craig.

Rags from Plano, United States

the way the light falls on their skins is just superb. The lighting as well as the subjects remind me of youth, innocence and also the beauty of life.
