Trying to decide which treatment looks best (for my own sake of getting better) and have a little better idea what to use for the old Christmas card.

    quite easily number 1. The softness does it for me.

    I say color and sharp. Which there wasn't that option for Clair.

    Adorable little ladies! Very pretty girls!

    These are wonderful!!!! I really like all of them. That should make it easy for you---you just can't go wrong! But the dreamy ones really worked very well for me (the #1 of each girl). I think it depends on what kind of card you are going to go with also. Want to post the templates with the 2 versions? That might make the decision very obvious. And wow, one blue eyed, blondie and one brown eyed beauty! Lucky you!

    Hi toddb,

    To me, the eyes are the most important things in a portrait, especially of a child. I'm gonna say I like the 4th one best for this very reason. Now had the first one's eyes been in focus like the 4th one's, I would have gone with the first one.

    thanks for the thoughts
    Appreciate the feedback folks

    kidzmom -- I'm using one of the smugmug templates - ordered, but now second-guessing. Maybe I'll put up a couple of alternate versions later.

    Nightpixels -- Agreed on the eyes (especially with kids). Unfortunately, I just plain missed on the first one.


    Here's what the ordered one looks like (our names show in the blue box):

    Ooooh! GORGEOUS! Stunning girls and stop second guessing yourself. I think both shots look wonderful. The elder girl's eyes are a touch softer than your younger daughters, BUT the blue color is all you notice in that shot anyway... Don't worry everyone will be floored with these gorgeous cards clap.gif

    thanks
    thanks Kidzmom. I think it's going to work --- helps when the picture of Grace goes smaller for the card to hide a little of the softness in the eyes.
