A huge happy Mother's Day to all those Mums out there.
This is the Mother's Day shot I took for my mum and my DH'd mum.
Well I finally took the plunge and turned the dial from the auto mode to manual.
It didn't hurt too much and this is one of my first manual shots.
I am seeking CC as I REALLY want to improve and there are so many photographers here who inspire me.
These were my settings: 1/250, f6.3, ISO 100.

This is a beautiful photo of your girls!! The G-mas are sure to love it!
For CC...the photo looks slightly underexposed. By brightening it up a bit with a curves adjustment you might be able to pick up any catchlights in their eyes. Also, the skin tones look a bit yellow to me, but I'm on a laptop so I'm not sure how accurate I am.
I think you cropped it nicely and love their heads posed together!
Sweet. I agree with th previous post. I would have used a fill flash as well to get more catchlights and take the shadows out from under their eyes. There are a lot of competing colours in this too, so maybe a black and white instead or a selective colourization. Cute pose though. :)
I'm the pits at people photos so I'll leave the CC to the experts, but I wanted to say I love the composition and the flowers in the background. Bet the moms will love this! Happy Mother's Day!
Thanks to those for that advice. I agree with the undersexposed comments. Is there a difference between monitors? At home looked ok, now today at work looks a little too orange - again thanks for the advice.
I agree that it's a little underexpossed. Maybe be lowering your SS it would have helped a little. I think the colors look nice all together and comp is great!
Happy Mother's Day to you, what a nice shot no matter the technical stuff.
It makes me smile when I read "mum" :)
I think the girls are beautiful! I love the pinks they are wearing against the background of the flowers!
Cheers,

Cute girls and nice shot! I don't have any CC for you, though.

Beautiful girls! Love the flowery background. Congrats on making the big move to "M"! There's so much to learn, isn't there?
