Then they spontaneously formed a family group. Love them people! Now I have to find the card they gave me so that I can share the photos that they wanted to see!
I love the softness/dreamy quality of the first one. The image (and the young lady) are just precious! Very nice. I also can appreciate the lack of blown highlights in the last image. I tried to do something like this last May and totally blew the highlights on most of them (luckily, I got lucky in that one of them turned out).

Thanks, Scott!
On the first one I used some stuff in the latest "photoshop user" magazine. I hate paying 10.00 for that magazine, but I did it yesterday, and I used the info I "paid" for on that photo last night. Yes, I like the way it came out, too. I don't know if that is due to the technique or not, but I certainly think some of it is. It is the article on page 050 re CMYK and faces.
I improvised a bit, selecting and deselecting. Then I tried to do a frame technique that was in another article. In both cases I think some info was left out. I could do that article on CMYK, but not the frame. (I am glad it was that way rather than the reverse)
On the last one, that was a lucky accident. Suddenly those people were all lined up to have their photo taken, and I had to do it right then from where I was sitting on a bench.
After I took the photo (s), several in succession. They left immediately, and then I realized that I had "underexposed" the photos. If I had had time to do it "properly in my mind", I would have blown all the highlights and more. Sometimes an accident can be lucky! Not often enough. But I am glad it was in this case since the older lady really wants that photo. (She gave me her card, and I lost it! I hope the church knows them.)
