Hello POTN,

I'm looking for advice on a photo I took a few weeks back. I posted this photo in the "Rate the photo above you" section, but some members were able to point out some cloning errors. Since then I reedited this picture and would like to know what you guys think about it.

Edit: here is the link to my first version, https://photography-on-the.net …ead.php?t=99434​3&page=333 (post 4995)

I really like it.


There are minor things that could improve it - more intresting lighting, more blur on the background. But these are very minor, and I'm really clutching at straws to find a problem with it :)

Cool setup. Was this image really over-exposed then corrected in post? It just looks like their skin and her coat are missing a lot of detail.

I just wanted to get a 2nd,or third opinion. Since I'm still learning how to use photoshop I wanted to make sure the picture looks ok, or if someone can point out something that I couldn't see in the photo :)

Here is a before and after of the photo. Originally I was just going to do a simple color edit, but then I decided to go all out and try to put in a bit more time and effort into my photo.

My cloning skills are not the best but I wanted to make it appear more believable.
