    This one had nicer color (I thought) in the full size version. Resizing it kinda hosed it and I don't know why.

    Lynn,

    You said to go ahead and post so I am. I just adjusted it a little in PS. Trying to get some punch in the photo. This was just a quickie. copied the low res and adjusted. Again I know very little about PS, just throwing in my 2 cents worth.
    It looks good.. you did something to the lighting.. and what else, I'd be interested to know.:D

    Maybe it has something to do with how the software resamples the image as it kicks out pixels? ne_nau.gif. Can be fixed in Photoshop, using layers.

    It's a cool concept. I might have framed it so the left guy's back was against the frame. Better to leave room in the direction people are facing. That would have enhanced the "line" effect I think you might have been going for.

    Nope. Big is good!

    Whenever I post a reply that includes someone's smugmug hosted photo, I hack the image link down to the small size to keep my reply smaller.

    Hats
    Decided that my Grandson Brady, might make a fair subject for the "hat assignment" when I caught him in the playroom, playing with my 100+ year old, "off limits", Derby. Always into mischief...

    More on the Hat Assignment...
    And now the last three, as I told him it was time to give-up the Hat! Little terror...

    Those are great! Especially the last shot. :D

    a quickly done one
    It took a while to get my model to cooperate. She kept wanting to sniff the camera so I had to rush the setup a bit.

    Fortunately, she didn't lick the lens... :D

    I like the first one, he looks more innocent. I tried using the new sharpening technique on him.

    Innocent? He has you fooled!

    Thank-you...
    Yes, I like the first one best, too. But innocent... Boy has he got you fooled... He was scheming up something, I assure you... Brady is one fiesty, rough and tumble, into everything, 4 year old boy. But I love my little grandson and wouldn't change a thing... Except perhaps, his temper...
    I am not sure that I can see a difference between the two images... But of course it is more difficult without them being side-by-side.
    Just loaded Photoshop CS onto my Mac, last evening... Can't wait to see what some of the differences are.
    I am including a larger image of the one I originally loaded.
    As always I remain,

    Yes, I agree. For some reason I had to reduce the file size, and any sharpness that I added, was lost. I think you'll enjoy CS. If I might recommend a book, it's "The Photoshop CS Book for Digital Photographers" by Scott Kelby. Filled with great how-to's in an illustrated, easy to follow step-by-step layout. Kelby's done quite a few of these, and he's good at it.

    As ever, yrs sincrly,
    Sid.
    :D

    Another hat...another model... new lighting as per tutorial from Andy (it's inside tho, no sun.) I'm going to buy a seperate flash unit soon... and I got Dan Margulis's Professional Photoshop color correction so things should look up soon right???? I've cropped this for modesty and the color has dimmed somewhat with optimizing for the web..
