It was 84 today. What is up with that?

Taken outside. Did some work in Color Efex Pro3 to make it look old. Worked on the background, removing some poles that were behind her. I played with the "lighten/darken" and also the "reflector" filters in CEP too. This may be my new favorite of Mackenzie, 2 1/2.

This is such a gorgeous shot, it has such a beautiful feeling and lovely light and movement through her hair. She's a real sweetie too :-)

Mackenzie is utterly gorgeous. I LOVE that backlit hair. I really like your processing, too.

Very retro and very honest.

a lost photo found at the bottom of a long forgotten chest, a face that seems to scream to be noticed - wonderful stuff

Composition: Wonderful. I love her placement in the frame.

Lighting/Exposure: Perfect. Backlighting and shadows both work well together here.

Pose: SO cute! I am guessing this is a candid shot, it is lovely.

Suggestions for Improvements: NONE. Keep it just the way it is.

I am so glad you got a new camera when yours broke! What would the DPC community do without lovely new shots like this to look at? :) She is just beautiful and your treatment in post is spectacular. Overall softness but a very sharp set of eyes. I really like this!

Mackenzie is adorable as always of course, but that sunlit, flowing hair is fabulous! I can see why this would be a new favorite, it is precious.

What a photogenic child! You have quite the knack for capturing such wonderfully unposed shots of her, Judy.

Great photo, I really like the way your photo came out with her hair blowing, and your effects really do compliment this pretty little lady!

Yes, yes, and yes again. Perfect washed out feel. This Color Efex is something I may have to look into. Wonderful moments you're capturing here!
