Same here...I'm not sure it really adds anything to the shot, but I'm prepared to be proved wrong:)

[Photonut29]

I would also like to see the shot without the PS work she is adoreable very beautiful eyes and such personality

[marie]

thank you all very much

http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif
I don't know why I done the other hoopla... as Tim says

I am ashamed now in away

http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_redface.gifops: three smacks and into the corner

I think you will all prefer one or so of these other shots
rather then the hoopla
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I was trying to have her as she looked yesterday and made a ^% of it

she really was adorable
a beautiful and very shy little girl
her brother's name is Dean and when I saw him watching on the sideline
I asked him would he like to join in

here are two more


http://www.pbase.com/image/41513267/large

http://www.pbase.com/image/41513203/large

the colour is slightly different here
her t shirt was a very very bright reddish pink
and didn't look so good in the shots

now I know

that's why I was messing about http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_eek.gif

and I didn't want her in sepia
or bl/wh



many thanks to you all

Much better shot w/o the framing, IMHO. Great eyes and hair.

[stoneylonesome]

Yup she's as cute as a button, doesn't look that shy to me. I like them all Marie. They show a lot of fun being had. :lol: :lol: Nothing burned tonight we ordered take out :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

thanks Sandy
she was very shy
another pair of street angels /house devils you think
?

http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

their mother ( or grand mother) was sitting on a bench nearby..
seemed in a trance http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif



glad nothing burned tonight

may burn up your insides laterhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I too like that shot much better without the PS work she is adoreable have you thought of doing maybe black and white with her eyes left color? I do that sometimes with my pics. you probably know how but if you dont can i try?

[timmyquest]

See marie, personally i like the un-photoshopped version much better. It allows me to focus more on the girl rather then the person behind the computer (you), which in my opinion is a better thing. I really like it, she's born to be a model :-P

[theman]

are her eyes two different colors?

[theman]

see

thanks photonut29

I don't like bl/wh with childrens pictures much
their personalities need a little colour (I think)

I especially don't like the eyes coloured and the rest bl/wh
in any shot.

but you are most welcome to post the shot here if you do it
others like to see it ..so it's fine

thanks Timmy
I knew you would like it better and I agree

I loved the shot soon as I saw it when I put it on the computer

it was the few spots and the colour which I was trying to make nicer
as I don't like to make everything perfect especially on a child's face
I tried the other (first picture) to make it a dreamy type
the t shirt was not a nice colour in the shots
am not mad about shocking pink
I like pink but not shocking pink
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif


re what you say
actually I think bl/wh puts more emphasis on the person behind the computer
I was trying to emphasize the girls mystical qualities (first shot)
and take away the rest (blemishes and colour)without taking away her personality (in bl/wh)

just my thoughts Timmy
thanks for yours.
I mean that


she will never make a model and I hope she never does
as she was different and special that moment
and that moment is enough for someone like her


she had a gentle and shy personality and that's all I wanted to capture
I never would like to see her posing and getting a different attitude about life and herself as she had a different personality from many other children


I see a few like that and I feel it in my bones ...they are special
nothing against models whatsoever
but that's a different set up ...for different people.

this one is cut out for something else

nothing wrong
takes all sorts to make a world
the last time I met a little girl something like this was in the doctor's surgery at christmas time .
she too was very special in an unique way
and , I think always will be






http://www.pbase.com/image/39411495/original.jpg


it's their personalities I try to capture if possible
not just the shot...as then it's just a shot.

I guess I want to show their souls
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif


thanks again Timmy

[marie]

are her eyes two different colors?

http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif

that's a very nice picture.
the highlights in her eyes show a little too brightly though



I don't think her eyes were two different colours
I would have noticed as I was chatting to her and looking into her eyes

not real real sure though as sometimes we don't see these things at the time

as it was her eyes which I particulary noticed and wanted to capture
think it is unlikely though http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif


thanks again

[txdude35]

Marie- The second girl is a FANTASTIC capture. I love taking pictures of kids, and this shot really captures an innocence that gets lost along the way. Thanks for posting it.
