And don't you dare touch the 3rd one! I love it!!
Nice clone job, and brightening of the dandelion one!
The only one thing I would do if it was me, would be to go to her waist with the crop for the blanket one.
But that is just me.
Nice job!
:)


dj, I tried that and was not very pleased with the results. I cannot say WHY I wasn't pleased other than to say it threw the photo off-balance somehow?? If that makes any sense. Kind of like looking at a photo with water that is tilted. I can post it if you want to see it. You may disagree with me and I know it is just a mental thing and not even sure I am correctly describing what I mean lol

Sure, post and lets see it.
I'm sure it is fine, but you have to be happy with what you are doing.

Pat, here is the crop that I was thinking of.
It's a nice photo, no matter what you do!

OK I recropped after your suggestion and liked it a little better than the first crop I did on her. I see you took out even more on the right (the grass) and I find it now does look appealing with your crop. Thanks! I think that right side was what was bothering me before, very nice job and thanks again!

Of course you could always do it both ways. Just make a copy of the original and do the cropping on the copy.
That way they have their choice between the two.
Have a great day!

I think these are better (lighting wise) but I do have a question.

Does it seem like none of these are sharp where they need to be (eyes, faces etc.)?

Also (and this is a preference for me) putting people right up against things just doesn't work; isolating them a bit more is more pleasing to me (Like #3 and #4)but that's just a preference.

Also when isolating; i'd also prefer a bit more blur...but again...that's probably just me.

My main critique is the focus...they seem soft.
