EditMe wk9


This weeks image to edit has been submitted by Stephanie of 'Behind the camera and dreaming'.
This is a beautiful image of her gorgeous boy - Jonah.


and here's my edit:


  • Opened in CS5
  • Ran a couple of Coffeeshop actions.
  • Added a warming filter.
  • Tight cropped.
  • Boosted the colours.
  • Reduced the brightness of the sky a tad.
  • Boosted the eye colour a tad.
I really enjoyed playing with this image even though I still didn't achieve the look I was going for.

Thank you to Stephanie for submitting the image and judging.
Thank you to Branson of 'My Reflection of Something' for hosting this brilliant challenge every week.
