Kuwait – Family Portraits

Whilst I was in Kuwait last week I got the opportunity on one of the days to get some portraits of my Niece and Nephew.  My Nephew as ever whilst in the apartment wasn’t too co-operative so I had to get some candid shots whilst he was playing with toys, it is also a basement apartment with little natural light so I boosted the ISO up to 800 and kept the aperture wide.

When we went out to the park he actually wanted some photos taken as my niece was enjoying the attention from my brother and I along with the camera, so managed to get one or two good shots.  Outdoors in the Kuwait afternoon it was very bright yet varied, and children tend to move a lot, using the fast aperture for speed to try and freeze the shot usually resulted in blown out shots, so I had to to use some exposure compensation (I was shooting in aperture priority mode).
