One of my favorites from a re-enactment
Hello to all. This is a shot I took at an 1812 Re-enactment. I saw her sitting there and hurried for the shot. I thought it would make an awesome portrait of a clown. I'm new to the forum life, so be easy on me! I'm trying to figure this out! LOL

Re: One of my favorites from a re-enactment
Welcome to the Forums, Trish. You've captured a nice moment here. If you don't mind me saying I think it could do with a little brightening and then maybe a touch more saturation and contrast. Perhaps a bit of fill-in flash might have helped bring too.
Keep on shooting and sharing, Trish

A bit flat as it stands but a bit of tweaking in the processing, to brighten it up and add some more punch, could make this into a really nice image. I would also crop the top slightly, to remove those blobs of white (tents?) that take the eye off the subject a little. Anyway, welcome to the forum, there's plenty of people around here who will help you figure things out |

Re: One of my favorites from a re-enactment
I agree with Anke, Great photo but needs a bit of PP.
I would try to work out when taking the photo to lower yourself as the angle looks a bit high. I am sure you did that to not have that distracting background that I can just catch a glimpse of.

Re: One of my favorites from a re-enactment
thank you, I am still learning the programs, just using picasa 2 right now. Resizing with adobe, of course, but having trouble understanding that program! LOL Thanks for your suggestions!

Re: One of my favorites from a re-enactment
Nice pic. Were we battling clowns in the War of 1812? No wonder we won! U-S-A, U-S-A!

Re: One of my favorites from a re-enactment
Nice capture that could definitely do with some levels boost. I'll bet it would pop nicely. Re-enactments are great opportunities.
