I handed the camera over in manual mode and tried my best to coach him...  I know that he missed focus a little, but I tried to correct that to best of my ability. Also, his first time trying to use flash as a fill light. Travis BTW: Go Tigers! _______________

Pose suggestion: Though you wife is very lovely, she looks a bit stiff. NOT to offend! If your wife was slightly tighter to you, perhaps her right hand at the middle to upper middle of you back (to embrace) and her left hand palm on you upper breast or on your left shoulder, also her head tilted ever-so-slightly to you instead of away, I think it would have worked better. I think you may need to calibrate your monitor if these colors look right to you. The skin tone is close to purple. Bob

Forgot to mention in my reply above, I think that the original is better too, as far as color tone goes. But, I saw a blue cast to the skin tones on the edit, not red. _______________

PsychProf Senior Member  430 posts Joined Dec 2005 Location: Madison, Florida More info | I like the feeling. Your Dad must be about my age. I began shooting in 1955 and only "converted" to digital about 18 months ago. What fun it is to have free practice!! I increased the contrast a good bit and bumped the saturation just a little. Then I ran the lowest level of Focus Magic to sharpen. Sorry they are so small but I do not have resizing down very well. You make a very attractive and peaceful couple.

IMO between yours, Pat's and the original, the original version still looks the best. Some people like very saturated/higher contrast images and some like the colors to be quite muted ... it's just a personal taste thing. Bob
