Last week when I posted this photo of Em in the FA LA LA LA LA post below I didn’t take time to fix it at all. When I got ready to print it for my Dec Daily album, I HAD to fix it because her eyes were so dark in this photo.
Here is the fixed photo which looks much nicer! It still looks a little dark here on my computer, but when I printed it out it was just right.
I’m guessing no one would even pay that much attention to this change and I could have swapped out the photos without even mentioning it here on the blog. However, I’m working on another blog entry titled WACKY WORKFLOW that I hope to post sometime later today when we finish school and that will explain more why it takes me forever to upload decent looking pictures and I’ll be asking you all to post your digital photography workflow so I can try to make mine more efficient.
The change really does make her eyes “pop”.
I obviously don’t spend a lot of time on each photo – because if I do I won’t have TIME to blog….it’s a quick endeavor for me…..and when I want to stop or slow down some family or friend far away will ask where the photos are….so I remember my goal and keep putting them up even when I think they are not very good photos. LOL I love to visit blogs where folks obviously take a bit of time with touching up and such…beautiful but not my season right now.
my hair looks amazing 🙂
If you ever get photoshop, the pioneerwoman blog has two sets of free photoshop actions that do some interesting photo tweaks.
Her first set is here:

And second set is here:

I’ve not used them because I don’t have Photoshop. But I know someone in the house is getting a copy for Christmas. lol….
What a difference, Cynthia! Good job with the adjustment.
