Farmhouse girl

This little girl watched me as I photographed the area, then I finally snapped

this one of her as she slowly approached me.

Hello

A nice capture. I love the explosion of colourful clothes that kids are keen on sometimes. The girls curious, open expression with touch of apprehension. The John Deere swather and the house show the location but are also part of a problem. It's a busy background. I played around with it to see what I could come up with to give as a suggestion. I cloned out the clearance bar above her head and the the green bar guide on the left and a couple hot spots around the tire. Cropped a tiny bit and blurred and desaturated and darkened the areas around her. As I said I like the jumble of colours of her outfit and blue eyes. I was trying to reduce the competition from the surrounding elements to try an make her stand out more but still keep the location obvious. Maybe not to your taste at all but just my 2 cents worth.

 I posted the result here.

Regards

Greg

Hi, I love this photo. Colorful clothing and girls expression demand immediate attention. Busy background dessapears and is not a problem.
