 Very quick shoot here as I only got home from the hospital the night before deadline time and I had no idea what to shoot and didn't think about it until 7:40pm on the 25th. I was spending time with our son Isaac and I asked him to help me with yet another shot. I wish I had more time to set things up and wasn't in so much pain while taking the shots.

We all live through things and I'll live through my little set back as well.

So this shot is really and truly an effort for my team to keep us a float, something, anything is better then a zero :)

Not my best work but I have yet to do my best work :)

The Edit:

Shot in RAW
Levels
USM
Saturation
For the first time I cloned out a piece of sensor dust, just one, that's all I swear.
Re-sizes for web
Added a white boarder

Looks like it could use just a bit more light in the models face particularly the eyes.

I guess this is another one I can't vote on. I would have to give it a 10. Love ya Aunt Donna

Too unintentionally spooky. Bad color I think. Shift balance toward yellow and cyan.
