About Playing with portrait photography during the holidays, I asked my niece to do some facial poses. I don't do many people and have a hard time asking models what to do.

I also played a bit in PS, practicing my finishing skills. I removed blemishes and flash reflections off her face, twinkled her eyes and lips from a tutorial I was reading, and of cousre, did smoewhat of a vignette.

I know I'll catch heck for the vignette here but appreciate any feedback on the tocuh up and presentation.

Thanks for your input.

Great expression and well catched. The framing adds up to the funny look she is giving us. I just regret that her lens is cutting part of her left eye.

Hi Dave... :)

Now, I like your vignette also... Really adds an OOMPHHH!!!... :) Not that it needs much at all... You have a very stunning neice... :)

However, how about maybe the matt a slightly softer tone so that the brim showed, had more definition, and you regained that less *hemmed in* feeling that Gary was talking about...

Would work very well in B&W... with the dark brim of the hat showing against a lighter mid to dark tone matt...

Regardless Dave... I like this... :)

Onie...

Thanks, Gary. I am not at all a fan of people pictures, especially family. Just ask them. But for whatever reason, I just took a couple of holiday snapshots and "played" with them last night for something different than my usual.

I prefer the original Dave. But I should confess I'm not a big fan of heavy frames. With the vignette she appears to be hemmed in and the original has given her portrait space to 'breathe'. The hat really suits her!
Regards, Gary
