    Both of these are really nice. I think the second is just a touch dark, but I prefer the composition.

    Re: boys at the beach

    Thanks yoyo and jetrim I had to get these candid shots since the boys will be boys if they knew their picture was being taken. I like the second best a little dark I agree but I tried raising the lighting and bump up the contrast and it blew out the bottom picture. This was the best I could do with the second pic without losing to much of the shot to noise.

    Try the Highlight/midtone/shadow function to bump the darks without blowing out the lights
