This was taken at a family gathering to celebrate my sister's 40th wedding anniversary. His mum seems to like it quite a lot...

huge eyes! what a cutie! the skin seems bit too plasticy and the whites of his eyes are over cooked though

Dreadnote

Have to agree with Quarik. Its a bit over-cooked. The whitening of the eyes doesn't extend out to the outer corners of his eyes either.

The software did that - and won't get used again.

What software did that automatically?

If you are using an automatic software editor, do that edit in a layer and then bring down the opacity to around 50% so it doesn't look as plastic.

It was On One Perfect Portrait. Just used automatic and let it do its thing really.
