 Got on the playground carousel with my daughter, Mikayla, for this shot as we spun around. I would have liked to shoot this wider to not cut off her hand and arm, but there's only so much time and opportunity with a 2-year-old.
In RSE, slightly reduced exp comp, reduced highlight contrast, slightly increased shadow contrast. Increased sharpness and detail extraction.
In Photoshop, levels, auto color, resized, unsharp mask, saved for Web.

Good 1. I like the colours, the focus, the angle. One of those shots that seem so simple but they are nothing but :) I hope it does well.

This is cute! So many shots of people on these playground things. Nice job on a steady pic while this thing is spinning around. Good luck!

Took me a while to spot the spinning element.

not crazy about the finger in her mouth, but a nice shot, nonetheless!
