thank you for all the really nice comments!!
i've gotten a few pm's asking about the actions i used.
1. wasn't a particular action, just some tweaking with levels.
(ok, lots of tweaking) i don't think i could reproduce it if i tried.
2. a duotone action was used here, if anyone is interested, i'll find
the name of the action and post it.
3. & 4. i used 'midnight sepia' for both of these.
it's one of my favorite actions and i really have to be careful to force myself
to NOT overuse it. i think if you google it, it's pretty easy to find.
5. wasn't an action either, just more tweaking.
again, thank you so much for the kind words. this is just one of my children.
fortunate for me, she still loves to dress up and ham for the camera.
