is there a way to fix this? The photo was taken in overly sunny conditions... i love this photo but I do see the distraction with no idea how to take it out without compromising the rest of the photo!
I like the blown-out style actually (goes with the big "scream" look). But if it wasn't intentional, then you can do a number of easy things to fix it:
1. Move, so that you're taking your photo in a less sunny area.
2. Use the on-camera flash to fill and balance the light.
