okay so here is my attempt to copy what you did, i copied your step by step but it doesnt look the same

Increase the blur on the first layer until you get the desired result you want

i said ONE of them i knew wasn't good but my WIFE liked it, and i never said i knew what was wrong on any of them except that one. I said the conditions were not ideal which is not an excuse just a simple statement of why that ONE pic came out bad, so take the stick out of your ass and go post your bull**** somewhere else.

to everyone else, thank you for the CC, i planned to take your opinions and put them to use.

I was planning to post a couple of constructive paragraphs until I read this. If you want to get anywhere in photography, you better learn quickly to get some thick skin. Responding like a pissy child when you don't like someone's post is the quickest way I know to get written off faster than you can type " I'm sorry."

I just reviewed my previous settings... I had blur set to 9.8... sorry

I just spent about 5 or so minutes fixing your first one... but this is what I was talking about... there isn't a need for the text or the arrow, considering the overall message is implied.

and here is the last one I am going to mess with. i really did all these just to see what the possibilities were with fixing them... this is the best I could do with this one:

So if you know these have problems and you know what you did wrong and you have every excuse why... Why did you post them for critique?

Why the assumption that one should only post work for critique that one thinks is perfect? I post things I think have problems (not here) because I want to see if other people see the same problems, or because I can't fully identify the problems, or to see if there are other problems, or, or, or...

Which begs the question... why do you not post them here?

exactly why she shouldn't of posted it.... I never once said i knew everything and I actually thanked everyone for advice and said i would put it to use. Maybe i went to far but its annoying when people post things like "oh well if you think you know everything why are you posting here?" especially when none of that was ever said.

why is it so bad to post photos here that you know isnt perfect but you want other peoples opinions on what you can do to make it better or shoot it better? Some people just love to troll on forums, that will never stop.

I dont know PS very well but how did you edit this one? I really like the deeper shadow on the wall. On the last one you edited I really like how you brought the eyes out and lighten the face. Any tips are greatly appreciated!
