Here is another shot, without the bra strap and without cleavage but there is still that big flash of light behind her head that I just notice now, anyway to remove it?
I have photshop but not on this computer so I guess Im out of luck with that! :(

Well I wouldnt think people would be drawn into a 10 year olds cleavage, lol, but I can understand where youre coming from. I always have problems witht he flash, I guess I don't have the best camera, it was hard to get any shot without a big flash of light so when I got this one I was satisfied, lol. Thanks for all the advice from everyone!!

Suffers from harsh flash. Can be transformed fairly well with some editing though. Hope you don't mind, I did a quick job on it.


Kind of tedious, but essentially:
-Tweaks levels to reduce flash blown highlights
-Undo the levels adjustment and use the history brush to reapply selectively a little bit at a time.
-Also blurred background to create a little more depth.

All of this assumes you have & are familiar with photoshop. If not, check the forums for various threads and tutorials and use whatever image editor you can and just practice practice practice!

Of course, you have several other shots that are very good to begin with - that always makes for a better final image. :) I see lots of potential with you though. Have fun.

OK ... I am going to be straight with you (please don't hate me )

I think that the "concept" is good here but I have a couple small problems with the image and one very serious problem

Small stuff.

The on camera flash is creating harsh highlights and shadows on the left side of the image. Also the highlight on Paris' face and right above the subject's head (from the flash) is distracting.

The bra strap should be cloned out

The white balance is of (due to the flash) the white pants (skirt???) has a blue cast to it

BIG stuff .

The positioning of the hands and the girls posture puts your eye right into her cleavage and I don't think that was the intent. And with a younger person ... it may be construed as inappropriate.

Just my 2C

peace
