my friend in promisekeepers had been trying for 23 months to adopt a Hatian orphan. 2 weeks ago it finally happened. Last sunday they baptized her at Christ Church (anglican) I went and covered the baptism as a gift for my friend. Being Pentecostal we baptize alot differently. We dunk not sprinkle. But it was an inspiring ceremony to me.

just added a few more shots. Christ church liked this shot of their Bishop but wanted the womans face behind him removed like a purged Politiboro member. Still learning, removed the face but it looked obvious, so I expiremented with several filters.

That was a funny comparison about the "purged politboro member". :lol:

Perhaps the best way to do this would be in PSE and to replace the background entirely. If you had a shot of just the background in this church, you could replace it with the current background. Or you could shoot a different but similar background. If you don't have PSE but supplied the background, I'm sure somebody on this thread could do it.

Hi,

It would be better to have had the original picture, however here are two quick attempts.
