    there’s no “natural feel for the human eye” to look left to right, that’s only because you grew up reading English that you feel that way. Arabic, Hebrew, Urdu are written right to left and Chinese and Japanese are written right to left and also top to bottom.

    To add to all this… you dont want the tallest people at the left side of the image. You should horizontally flip the group for a more natural feel for the human eye which is accustomed to view an image from left to right.

    I really hate people who think that their kids get “washed out” by a white background. You have to be a real albino like Powder to be washed out by a white background. Hate that term.

    Hey. Nice tutorial, i like how you explain things in nice calm and easy to understand-way. It’s simple but effective things to learn 🙂 But i’d like to see a pic where you’ve actually changed all the things you’ve commented on. In that way i think i could visualize things and by that understand things even better 🙂 Just a thought. Keep up the good work.

    Jems….. wide apertures like f2.8 have a shallow DOF [depth of field] so with five people in a group get to at least f5.6 – that with a wider angle lens will allow more DOF and thus better focus insurance for sharper shots. Try to up the ISO to 800. This helps get the aperture to f5.6 range.

    If lighting is low and aperture is wide open, where do you focus to get everyone tack sharp focus? Again for most amatuers we don’t have studio lights. Also would you focus and recompose?
