Wow! sure, that really nice comments. Will take note when doing a similar shoot at night. This was quite spontaneous and totally unplanned... :embrass: Thanks again for you valuable comments. :thumbsup:

Yes, the reflection could be removed but all the images were posted with no post correction to the image other than minor color or brightness or light enhancements. She's close friend but I think she has the capability to do some modeling for photoshoots :think: Thanks for the comments...

Thanks for the comments. Yes the shadows are due to the natural lighting and flash. Even though flash bounce was used, the surrounding lights couldn't be avoided. As mentioned, this was a total unplanned moment but was quite nice to do such an spontaneous shoot :cool:

These shots were taken using natural light available to enhance the darkness crawling in and an emotional night... #1 Watching & waiting... Will he be coming? #2 Waiting is painful... #3 Where could he be gone... #4 Finally, I hear him on his way... #5 Out to greet him...

Yep, these were taken at the Bird Park :cool:

Thanks for your honest comments OlyFlyer. It's great hear from a guy like you who does DIY on Olympus and with so much technical knowledge. Agree with you on the shakes as it was hand held. These were taken with M-mode, using spot. WB set to A3 ~ 4 which is known like "skylight" but on Vivid...

50mm f/1.4D shows a lot of difference between the standard zoom lens. This is a prime lens and it has excellent bokeh. "The Nikon 50mm f/1.4 is a secret weapon for low-light photography..." http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/5014af.htm Great! heard good reviews about and I'm trying to try...
