I am sure the mother would be very pleased to get a copy. I love the expression on the dogs face

. I am just wondering if there is to much empty white space over the girls head. Also prehaps whiten the girls teeth a touch.

What a fabulous shot

Some thoughts on a few details :

Skin tone looks rather pink on my monitor. This is more peculiar to the arm, since we might expect children to have rosy cheeks.

I like the tight crop, but then you went + left loads of space at the top; I think crop it to just above her head.

Clone/heal out the shadows under her eyes?

Then definitely give it to the mother, it's a fabulous picture

Another great shot MD

Agree with crop- and shadows under the eyes. Both minor points, I bet Mum would be over the moon with it as it is.

I like the crop, but were the moles added?

Rob Barron · 14-02-2008, 21:24

I have a feeling you cloned the moles out in first shot and forgot them second time round, but either way, that is not a problem. I am VERY cautious of removing them in a shot of a young girl like this as if you do then it says 'These don't look nice' and can give them a complex about something that is not an issue.

Lovely shot and mum is gonna love it

Cheers,
Rob

moles were left in on the 2nd as that is how she is . i have lost a spot or two..

thanks for the honest feedback..

**Dabhand16** · 14-02-2008, 21:43

I totally agree with Rob here, and my previous comment was very tongue in cheek.

monkeydave · 14-02-2008, 21:52

there is a very good argument here for when to and when not clone out things..

if i had not posted the 2nd shot i dont think anyone would be any the wiser ...

but that is not how the girl was/is which is why i posted the 2nd pic to get some feedback on the pic the mother will / could have..

i do not condone cloning out of moles/ birthmarks/ or such

where as a spot or mark that will not be there in the future i may clone..

just thought i would let people know my thoughts....

many thanks for reading

Oh, yes Dave - I've no problem with zapping a zit

It is just the permanent features i would not touch.
