I'm about ready to throw my lens out the widow!! I took Addie Grace's 7 month pics this morning.
Perfect light, perfect outfit, perfect disposition.
I ended up with not-so-perfect pics.
Same issues as before.
So I'm headed up to the camera shop tomorrow to find out what's going on.
Anyways,
I edited these 2 and couldn't decide.
Which do you like better?
You know B&W are not my forte. Do the whites look TOO white?
And does the color pic look oversharpened? The sun made a haze over her but instead of it looking cool,
it just looked like
haze.
So I tried to defog it a bit. Not sure if I helped or made it worse.
I'm totally in a photography slump right now.
I'm blaming it on the kids :-)
Someone has to take the blame, right?!
Anyways, I'd love your opinion!!


I love the color one the best. It is so sweet and the haze makes it seem even sweeter.
ReplyDeleteThe black and white...It looks pretty good except the contract between Addie and the rest of the picture is too much. It makes her look washed out. Try bringing the brightness of the whites down a touch. After I do a black and white I do a sepia layer very very slight to warm it up a bit and then soft light layer to bring depth. I'm not saying that is the best way to do it...just the only way I know.
I should add...I use an action on my black and white. Mine are from Nelly Nero. Totally free :)
