antoniobassiphotography 0 Posted January 3, 2008 Hi Chad, first of all you captured a beautiful and peaceful smile and that's a good start. The picture is a little too big and I have to scroll up and down in order to see it all. I don't like the sepia-like tone, I would do it in B&W and work a little with exposition-gamma or levels. Another technique to get a good B&W to start with is selecting black as a foreground color and then, on the levels palette, select "gradient map" (you find it under the icon that looks like a black and white tao). If you didn't understand anything I said ... well... you should get Photoshop CS2, a CS2 tutorial or handbook and start messing around trying to follow the directions and memorizing bit by bit, that's how I started.

antoniobassiphotography 0 Posted January 3, 2008 Oh, I forgot: I would crop a little from the top and the left. Link to comment
