Thank you for your comments. I can see what darkening the background can do to enhance the portrait. However, I particularly like the depth the green and images in the background give to the shot. The background makes the image a bit untraditional and I like that about it.
I do not have Photoshop or any other program like that yet, so all my pictures you see on this site are exactly what I was able to capture on my Canon PowerShot. I have managed to crop some images, but most are full frame. I try to frame my shots through the viewfinder as much as possible.
Thank you again for your comments - I appreciate every insight. Please keep them coming.
Thank you for your comments. Yes, the title sounds odd, but it's kind of an inside joke. This is my two and a half year old niece who is very opinionated. The terrible two's I guess.
I was telling her that she was funny, and this was her response... very adamant.
A lovely cheeky grin, great portrait, I wonder if darkening the background a bit would enhance the portrait had a bit of a go see what you think Margaret
