First and third are the same but I didn't realize it at the time then didn't know how to delete the third. Grandkids With glow sticks underwater = fun photo opportunities:)

The first and third appear to be the same. And I see faces in them. How were these shots achieved? I think they are kinda cool. Might want to try this.

The following is just my personal opinions and none meant to be derogatory. First, your exposure was right on! The lighting was also quite good and not expected from your comments. I found that, [b]IMHO[b], with some PP you could greatly improve your portrait quality. I took the liberty of applying some...a sample is attached.
I understood your theme and tried to retain that. However, I found that the white towel took attention away from your subject. I therefore blurred it and the BG as well as greately toning the white down. I also found the black holster (took me a while to figure out what it was) distracting as appearing out of subjects head. Maybe a better placement could be found. Having darkenend the BG a bit, I brightened the child a bit, as well. I admit I got carried away and enhanced his/her eyes some also. I apologize if my going so far is offensive to you. It is all just intended to offer some alternatives (the PP) to your space limitations. You can simulate more space in the finished product in this way. I hope this helps with your problem.

Thanks Joe. I don't mind a bit. This is the place to learn right? Another confession..... I'm not that proficient with photoshoping. I have elements and do minimal stuff. I really appreciate the effort you have given. :) Deanna

I really loved those shots. The water looks inviting and the children look happy. Great memories.
Thanks GrandMa. They were having a good time. Your are right about making the memories. I have 3 grands and they all live about 4 hrs. away. I've been getting these two every month since they were 2 1/2 mo. old until the granddaughter started kindergarten last yr. These two have been with us since school got out to spend the summer with their daddy. Unfortunately they have fallen into the statistics of the day due to divorce. :-(

There are a couple of kids not shy around a camera. Great shots.
My granddaughter wanted a camera. She said an easy one just to take pictures with. I bought her a cell phone with an 8 mega pixel camera. Now she calls me up and tells me about the pictures that she has taken and sends them to me. They are better then what I do. I'm going to take it away from her. LOL Yaa right, just try it.

Thanks for looking LindaB. It is digital P&S, Olympus 'Tough'. We took it to the gulf yesterday and even though Dravyn wasn't taking photos all the time he had it around his arm. I bought a flotation wrist strap when I bought it just in case it got away. At the time I bought it at the local camera store I go to the sales person told me they had just checked one out that someone had found while diving. It still worked.
