Thanks, Rob! Actually I like it too and for the same reason.

Stocks? This could be a good ad for those stock trading companies: While Daddy does grocery shopping, I manage his portfolio!

But no, he was playing a game on my "work-issued" BlackBerry :eek: He might have cancelled a few of my meetings!

Thank you Nik for posting your image. :)

I have a doubt: is this the way you want us to see the photography ? Horizontally or was it supposed to be vertical ?

In the first case - landscape mode, horizontal - I think it is a ... cool idea but I also wander if it wouldn't be better flipped horizontally because the way we generally read.

Oh well, just my point of view, just the way I bend my head to be able to watch the face of this young woman. :)

The "treatment" you introduced to the photography is interesting but the blue spot doesn't looks well in this context, does it ?

:)

Antonio... =)

i... rarely crop in photoshop and never use my clone or healing tools. =)
(only when i need to get rid of a blemish or two)
what i post is what i see in the camera. my daughter was laying next to me on the bed when i made this picture and i pretty much left it as is.
in my photography business , i capture what is in front of my camera. the light, the shadows, the ... blue spots.
i capture grainy images, blurry images, out of focus images... i capture what i love.
i'm not the girl that will get rid of the telephone lines in an otherwise 'perfect' picture, if that makes sense.
nothing wrong with other people doing that... it's just not 'me'.

OK Nik. :) An option, like any other...

In fact I would like to see more images of yours with that "posture" of yours...

Feel free to keep them coming :)

Excelent :)

Un-centered, well focused, nice background in colors and shapes, nice sweater. :)

You should have a dog Alis. It's very good for children :)

However, I wonder if a different crop wouldn't be better ?! :rolleyes:

Thanks, Antonio! I like this crop better. Actually, right after I posted it I noticed the cut going through the left arm and also the extra space on top. But you fixed the color problem too. Thanks!

:) :)

Simple and effective Alis ...
:)

You need the new CS5 to erase the lady in red, Alis. :)

I sincerelly would like to see what one can get in images like this and with this specif work.

As far as I have seen it is really fantastic the way CS5 works with the photos.
As until now, we never know what is true and what is not. :)

It looks very effective from what I have seen so far, but I don't think it can recreate the half of the baby that is now behind the lady in red :)
