The decisive moment indeed... there is nothing really funny about this shot, but I can't help but laughing every time I see it!

EssPea: I know exactly what you mean - she does have a really infectious smile :-)

comment by Carlos Lorenzo at 11:54 PM (GMT) on 19 September, 2008

She looks great and I do like the smile.

I love your b&w photographs, your tones always come out so well. I'm still trying to master b&w conversion using the channel mixer, your tutorial was very helpful, and I think my problem starts in processing my raw file, because I seem to get a lot of pixelation. Oh well your images inspire me to get better! Thanks, great shot!

I meant noise, not pixelation :)

I didn't know whether she was going to cry or laugh next... Great capture, David, I love the way you framed it, the nice use of f/2.8 on the right eye.

This is one cool portrait and one great moment to catch!

comment by Rafael Perrone at 05:41 AM (GMT) on 20 September, 2008

Excelent. Her expression is priceless.

Infectious is the right term. Marvellous capture.

comment by Jennifer at 08:32 PM (GMT) on 20 September, 2008

:-) Love to know what or who caused this expression!

comment by djn1 at 10:38 PM (GMT) on 20 September, 2008

Thanks everyone.

Jennifer: I was so busy concentrating on taking the picture that I'm not sure what caused the smile.

Nice shot, :-)

She is Muros hablados

Great shot David! ... and awesome site, congratulations!

comment by Claus at 10:39 AM (GMT) on 23 September, 2008

Funny expression, looks like she ate something sour!

comment by elp at 01:07 PM (GMT) on 24 September, 2008

Excellent, probably the best picture I've seen from the weekend

I love this portait, it just makes me smile every time I look at it. Nicely framed.
