Re: Getting Ready for a Picture
Hi Homer,
Great capture.
I hope those are hair grips in Travis's mouth and he's not about to take a bite out of Trinity
Cheers, Dave

Her eyes sez it all !
Such that, even with only the hands of Nephew Travis showing,
you'd know what it's all about.

Re: Getting Ready for a Picture
Nice capture, Homer. But where did Travis' body go?

Re: Getting Ready for a Picture
The background was not ideal and I trashed it and put in a gradient. Travis' body was indistinguishable from the dark background, so I just let the gradient fill it in. It's a bit of a cheat but I think it works OK.

Homer - this is a great shot, but the "fake" background really does look fake and takes away from the overall image.
