I really will post some pictures using lenses other than the lensbaby. I promise! Sometimes it's just one of those toys that I can't seem to put down.

Here's Daniel, once again. He really is a pretty happy kid; I just like to capture these more quiet moods every so often.

Used this very versatile texture:

multiply, screen & hard light blending modes on varying opacities.

Added a burnt edges action on multiply to the border

Erased away much of the texture from the skin

I can't get concrete textures to work well. :-P This is nice. I like how the blurred edge created by the lensbaby melds with the texture layer.

Your kids were born for these emotive shots. Excellent warmth of tone. I love the layer!

the overlay and your boy's body position sure creates a somber mood.

You create the most amazing images of children, Erin! This is just wonderful, so thoughtful and moody yet innocent and sweet. Great overlay as well!

Gorgeous portrait and processing. I am really loving these dark, monotonish treatments. That layer is fanastic and I love knowing the processing details. I definitely want to try it. Thanks for the education.
