Just playing in the backyard practicing taking shots using manual focus. I like the way this one turned out, gives a sense on my 3-year old's personality (and energy level :huh ). Your c/c much appreciated.

    Cute! I really like the processing and how the bubbles pop. Ha ha ha, I didn't intend the pun when I first typed it.

    Thanks Caroline....I was eager to try this preset (that I tweaked just a little) which I learned about from this thread.

    Precious! I love the expression, toning, composition and generally happy-go-lucky attitude of the picture. Beautiful! clap.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    I think the blue toning is just a bit too harsh. Pull down the opacity/strength a tiny bit. Otherwise, great photo.

    cutness! I like the composition and the bubbles but I think it would also look great in color as that would give it a more summer time feel for me anyway.

    Wow - I even got a heavy hitter to comment!! mwink.gif Thanks Sandy.....the color version just didn't do it for me, but I agree that it would have given this image a better summertime feeling.
