It's Fix-It Friday at I Heart Faces. I have found recently how important editing photos can be. And just how much practice it takes. So, practice I am.
This darling really pops out from her dark surroundings. I wanted to enhance that even more. I love me some bright colors.
Straight Out of the Camera
My Edit
Using PSE 8, I opened in RAW. Adjusted the white balance, clarity, blacks, vibrance (I'm really increasing my vibrance these days), and sharpen until I saw an image that I thought portrayed reality the best.
Then I cropped to a 8 by 10. Saturated and dodged her eyes with a very low opacity. I ran Lovely and Ethereal by Pioneer Woman and darkened the left side of the the background.
I flattened. I saved. All done.
