GooGoo! C&C and lightroom tips for color!

[SnappingShark]

OK so I took this on my Leica M9 (M-E shh) during a quick shoot 2 weeks ago with my new daughter *beams*

But anyway - I would like C&C on the processing please - and also advice on how to get the red from her feet to look normal.

Thanks!



Reason for asking: I'm prcticing with some new editing techniques I've been learning just to try and make my baby shots that wee bit cuter and print-worthy!

So in sixteen years or so, this will be the 'blackmail' shot?

The processing isn't bad; I think careful use of the red, purple & magenta sliders would help reduce the problem, unfortunately, it looks like you missed focus on her face!

Yeah the focus isn't great, she moved a lot I was practicing the processing in this.

I'll try the sliders on those colors!! Thanks for the tip!!

Woohoo!!! got the foot looking pretty much right (in my eye!) - Thanks @tirediron !

First it's a nice photo.
Second I think tirediron is right.
Kinda like it anyway.
