 I did portraits for this family and their mother pointed out that her baby has unusually long eyelashes and would love a picture that captured that and this one was just right on. I loved the angle of her hait and the sunlight on her face and the way her jacket complimented the other colors in the picture. This picture makes me really happy.

All I did for editing was I lowered the color temperature to bring out more of the blues and white, converted from raw then softened just a tad and then cloned out a small destracting sunbeam from her left cheek and cloned out some little stray hairs. I loved how much natural softness this picture had to begin with, it wasn't just processed to be that way.

You were so robbed. This is a beautiful portrait. Lighting is wonderful and your lash detail is the greatest. Folks just don't appreciate lovely portraits at all on dp. You should really be proud and very pleased with this image.
