Keep in mind it was an extremely bright day and playing with the different skintones was difficult.

Funny how I now have LR3, yet I still find myself trying to process in high contrast :rofl.

    That's what I liked about the shot, the cast of characters.

    About the cropping--I cropped him out as much as I could. Following some advise from this forum, I now try to stick to proper proportions (tip of my tongue, I can't remember the term). If I tried to cut him off any, then I would lose either some from the top (which I don't want to lose more of the crazy guy in costume) or the bottom (which would cut out more of her already missing foot). I also didn't want to loose the guy on the bottom right of the frame with the hat.

    "Cast of characters" is exactly what came to mind upon initial viewing. I thought of a Hollywood casting call.

    I like it cropped as is as the peripheral figures add so much to the feeling of activity and diversity.

    And BTW, "trying to process in high contrast" made me chuckle cuz the contrast is nowhere as high as just a few months ago thumb.gif. We may pass each other on the contrast slider in the near future...rolleyes1.gif

    Bite your tongue:)

    Actually I was trying to process in high contrast, but it wasn't working.
    With the bright light and the very dark and very light skintones I kept losing their features. As it is, it was a struggle to get the male with the funny hat to be visible at all he was so dark skinned.

    Such a fun shot, Liz! I like the way you processed it.
