    I prefer something closer to your usual PP. But hey what do I know?

    Thanks Trudy.

    I don't disagree. Just fooling around with processing. I like to keep it minimal and more true.

    I should've known better. What do you think of these. Which crop works better?

    BTW, this is our daughter Olivia.

    2nd crop, the chain links being tilted makes me dizzy. I had to really look to see if they were the same image, they seem totally different. I experiment all the time, it can be hard to judge something you have looked at so closely for so long. But don't stop just because that one image didn't work.. some of my favorite images have come from making a mistake in PP !! The current avatar I am using was accidently processed twice in Lightroom, I love the results.

    I'm not feeling it.

    I think you have a gorgeous wife with wonderful skin tones that would be hard to impove on with most experimental PP.

    2nd crop IMO. I don't mind the processing on the first one but the dark circles under her eyes don't do your daughter justice.

    Ball diamond or whatever that is in the bkg is too distracting. The facial exposure is odd it seems and her left eye needs some liquify.

    Only thing that really botheres me is the seam on the sleeve of her right arm. It's really distracting, although what you could do about it now after the fact I am not sure. Like the processing of #1. :)
