My better half

[Frits]

A picture of "the boss", taken a few days ago. Not posed, just caught her reading near some glass doors (natural light).
D1x / AF Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 @ 1/50 (!), f/4.5.
A (very slight) touch of softening up in PS (hey, she'll hit the Big five-oh this year - givvur a break already!!).
I love this kind of shot......

wonderful shot, lovely wife. The softness of the image really makes it.

The natural light is very nice and the slight gausian blur on the skin really makes this a very nice image. Of course it would be nowhere without your lovely wife.

Great shot, Frits! She's a beautiful woman and you've really captured her glow!

I've seen that expression before on my wife. did she just see the B&H bill for a new lens or camera?

Love the soft focus and use of light. Great shot, great pose.

Great Scott

Very nice shot...and an even lovlier lady. With that type of subject, I bet you get lots of practice and a ton of great shots.

Frits,

Great photograph.

Your wife: "Our family is doomed. Our father is spending all his money on Nikon gadgets. What are we going to do ?".

Well done

Such a nice shot...Being a redhead myself, I know that natural light is one of the most flattering sources to be photographed in...your shot is warm and soft...altogether a very nice shot.

Very lovely portrait shot, Frits. A nice glow, excellent angle and I like the softening. I'm impressed that at almost forty-ten, she's not wearing glasses to read!! LOL
