- Photos OK to edit
One of these shots I may have posted as an original but have since edited it.
#1 - Not too thrilled with having the side of his face chopped off, but this is the only clear picture of one of my graduating students. Did a little dodging and burning to darken the background and to lighten his aviators.
#2- Friend's dog. I think the DOF makes him look a bit more stumpy than he is, but I was happy with the focus of his eyes.
#3- I posted the original a while back but did a few things to tone down the background and lighten her face. I think it looks better, but I think I might have overcooked it.
#4 - Daughter lost her first tooth. Took a few quick snapshots right after it happened. I liked it better in B&W and tried to edit it to get a lot of detail and contrast. In my eye it is close to too much, but I tried to duplicate the tone I have seen in some B&W portraits.
