give me your answer true

thanks for looking...comments and critiques are appreciated.

I can look at this for long periods of time...and do...Another stunner...! On my screen it's rich in many ways...Bravo! juan

Creative composed! Colors fit. Wonderful! BR Joerg

Your colors are gorgeous, and so complementary! Focus, dof, and exposure is handled very well. I like it, top marks from me! Happy Holidays to you and yours.

Very nice Tiffany! I love the texture you used. The color compliments her eyes well.

A very sweet little girl and very effective use of positive space to the left. The colors are muted, which really works quite well to set the mood here. Just a lovely portrait all the way around. I can't think of a single thing to improve upon, well done!

Juan...wow! I passed the juan monitor test...that is quite a compliment!

 

Jorg...thank you for your generosity and support

 

Jim....thank you! your visit means a lot. happy holidays to you and your family.

 

Amy...thank you! yes...this texture is definitely my current fave

 

Steve...thank you so much...I tried a few versions of this and I was hoping this one worked...sometimes it is hard to tell when you work on one piece for awhile

Wow. You nailed it!

Wonderful. The colors, the expression and the framing are simply beautiful. It is like a painting.

I would have maybe cleaned her face a bit less (in terms of softening), but this is a minor detail. Really nice.

Tiffany,

 

this is wonderful, excellent processing.

Color, composition, subject, lighting .. it all comes together perfectly! Well done indeed.

This is really a beautiful portrait. I like the tight crop and his/her expression is priceless. Nice colors and light. Great portrait. Regards - michel

Wonderful color harmonies and textures here. Excellent lighting to lower the contrast on his face.

Tiffany, this is gorgeous. Nothing more to say.

That hasn't already been said. Oops, I believe I just

sang a little song!

Mark....Garsh! Thank you!

 

Francesco...Thank you. I agree that kids really don't need any help with skin softening, but sometimes I like it for the more idealized/illustrated look.

 

Gary...Thank you!

 

Joe...I wish I knew the magic formula, but maybe that would take all the fun out of it (>8

 

Michael...Thank you! I have recently developed a keen interest in the square crop and what makes them work...or not.

 

Les...Thank you! This is actually a little girl this time. You know how I love to keep you guessing.

 

Janis...Thank you! I so appreciate your visits. Your picture of Garrett...he could have been singing this song.

 

 

Excellent!!

This is very close to the perfect child portrait. The clothes and accessories come together to enhance the look of the child. I also like to off-center positioning and the lighting. I don't know how you got this expression but I love it. A little detail, the way she has her lips, is the perfect final detail.

Salvador...Thank you!

 

Mark...Thank you!

Her expression? (sung to Dory's song in "Finding Nemo") "Just keep shooting, just keep shooting, that's what we do....ou...ou...we keep shooting!"

 

and Happy New Year, or at least Joy, Peace, and a Happy Holiday Season.

Happy New Year!

So beautifully done! Congratulations.

Excellent photo, Tiffany ! I just love it and wish to create something similiar once :)

Added to my favorites.

Question: that sunflower looks like it was added later to the picture ?

Gary...Thank you and Happy New Year to you too!

 

Pierre...Thank you...nice of you to stop and visit!

 

Clemson...Thank you!

 

Denis...Thank you! Yes, the sunflower was added. It is the same sunflower that I used in "How Does Your Garden Grow?"...I am sure that the lack of shadow gave it away, but sometimes the viewer is more lenient when a child is involved (>8

Wonderful portrait . Beautiful colors and interesting her pose . Regards Dan .
