This is my youngest , ( i know it makes her look older than she is , prob wrong pose ) . Please tell me what you think . I like the original too , but thought this was " something different " .




ill post the original too ( straight out the camera ) .





thanks for looking ........ Shawn

I like them both very much. I really like the b&w and how you kept her face in the upper left quadrant. It is her arm that I'm distracted by. I wouldn't crop but maybe a long sleeve? However you might want to apply that. Real or photoshop?

With the colour version I'm thinking of a tighter crop. Like this maybe?

Nicely captured Shawn. I like the isolation of her face in the b & w - arm looks like it is hanging from nothing (as Toad said).

nice capture BD, like the pp on the b&w but agree the arm is just a little distracting

Thankx Peto , W S , and Russt ,

I see what yall mean about the arm now . Maybe thats what i was thinking was wrong with the PP . Sometimes my eyes just dont tell me what is wrong with something LOL .

I really like the crop Peto , I might have to steal it from ya, hahaha. Im not sure i know how to get a sleeve on her with PS , how would i go about it , clone ?

Great pose and capture. I agree about the arm. I would like to see the crop in B&W as well...

Hi Shawn, In B&W just use the eyedropper to get the shade and use brush or aerosol spray.
The sleeve in colour is a bit tricky as you don't have a lot to clone so..
a. clone a bit at a time..... time consuming
b. take a shot of the back of the teeshirt, over a chair or something (she doesn't have to be wearing it.
Get the light similar to the original, and clone from that one on to the original (or copy).
c. crop.

Anyone else got suggestions as my version of PS is elements edition 1.:/
