Challenge: Color Studio Portrait III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D60
Lens: Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR
Date: Sep 30, 2008
Aperture: 5.6
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/40
Date Uploaded: Sep 30, 2008

The red colour cast is due to Bug's bedroom walls being bubble-gum pink, and I couldn't figure out how to tone it down with basic editing.

I think this looks MUCH better as a B&W photo, personally.

If you have the software, Adobe Camera Raw could help get the color cast out. See the HSL/Grayscale tab, and try Saturation and Luminance adjustments. Or in Photoshop, try Selective Color.

I think I know this little one, if I'm not mistaken your mom is Lea.
Nice composition and lighting on this one. Great smile.

MAX!

A very pleasent photo of a little girl. Unfortunately with the way she is leaning backwards and with the lack of more fill it causes her eyes and mouth to be very dark, and also a very strong shadow below her chin. The outfit blends into the background so a backlight would have also helped this.

You have a great little model here so you will lots more chances to improve. Good luck.

Good picture but colors seem a bit off. Her face is way too pink. Easily fixed though. :)

There is a strong pink cast here. I like the pose, the very natural-looking smile and the composition.

Nice picture of a gorgeous little girl. I think that the reddish light spoils it a bit.

a beautiful young girl - but there appears to be some very strange hue adjustments done to the photo that gives the girl a pink/purple look

I suggest less of a red cast in the face.

skin tones are too reddish from wrong white balance. otherwise well done
