Here is my god daughter and her best friend. I took this photo while visiting my family last weekend. Tell me what you think. I rarely do people photography so any editting tps would be great. :D :D

What I know about editing would fit on the head of a pin but I can tell you that the kids are cute.

great pic. i like this better in black and white. sharpened a little, boosted contrast. :) it shows the closeness of the two girls better i think. :)

Thanks Ellen,

I tried switching it to BW myself but the results weren't as good as yours. I ended up with lots of artifacts and the hair looked terrible. Any suggestions?

BTW, I think pbase added some saturation to my photo. The version I bring up from my hard drive isn't as red. I did a color print last night and it came out looking really nice.

I have photoshop elements 2.0. Not sure if that will work.

Love the black and white version.

If the original shot hadn't been well composed it wouldn't have worked. So WELL DONE!
