Easter shots

TPBinKC

I know it is a few days past Easter but I just worked up the courage to put some photos up.

These were all shot with no flash, no pose, just trying to document the day. I normally consider myself to be horrible with people photos, but these were better than average for me. I actually liked some shots from that day. I have not processed these in anyway yet. I'm even worse at post-processing than I am at taking the photos in the first place.

Little cousin looking for eggs in the woods behind her grandparents house.

Wonder what she is thinking about, probably candy...


Another cousin, a very wonderful person...


I had a few more that I liked but do not want to overdo it. Thanks for looking...

Hi there,

Don't be afraid of post-processing...it's all part of the game. The great thing is that if you screw it up, you can always just start over. You've got some good shots here, but I think they would benefit from a little brightening and contrast enhancement.

Regards,

Richard, thank you for the input. I really meant to say that yesterday. I will do some playing in Elements and see if I can improve these a bit.

Thank you again...

That first picture is a great shot. What kind of camera/lens are you using?

I'm with Richard on this one. Compositionally good photos but they need some pop to them - brightness, contrast, and saturation. You can definitely have some with these in post.
