Daughter of a friend!!! Rate it.

What he said but do it in the raw if you can. The pics are cute but flat. They need some contrast IMO.

Oops, sorry, I see they are Fuji pics and I don't know about raw there...

This will work for jpegs or what ever format.... have fun with it!

Certainly will work with jpegs, tif, etc. I just find a bit more lattitude in raw. And besides, I just recently found that DPP works for the 300D. When your current favorite tool is a hammer, all your problems become nails..

absolutely agree - I use RawShooter essentials and in one interface I can do what it takes 2 or 3 to do in PS. Just letting him know that even with JPEGS you can make a lot of the color and exposure fixes that some here have elluded to can only be done with RAW.... What I do like about RAW is all your changes are not to the RAW "negative\r\original" - if you don't like it - just start over again as nothing destructive has been done to the original.

Thanks to all of your input, these were taken with a FUJI S5000 to which now I have upgraded to a Canon Rebel 300D, the pics were taken very closely to the little girl. Once again, I truly appreciate the attention I've gotten here, will keep trying to improve.

I see what he said, I think it's pretty cool to what you can do....
