Brinley 3

This is my wife's grand neice. She is a very willing subject which helped me practice

some portraits which I have no experience shooting. She has a fiber from her hat at

the corner of her right eye that I can't seem to get out and keep a natural look.

Comments appreciated, thank you!

Dick.... What an absolute cutie! I think that's a snowflake, but how's this repair? Mike

 

Mike, thank you! Your repair looks very good! I don't have much experience with portraits or cloning or repair work which I am just beginning to explore. The kids were visiting here last week and I just went out to get some shots of them playing with my Nikkor 80-400 mm zoom. Actually, I was pretty happy with the performance of the lens...and my subjects:-)

 

Have anice night!

I cloned out the fiber with Photo Shop. LOL However the original shot is just fine the way it is. She's a cutie!

Thank you, Kathy! I tried to clone it out in Aperture, but I kept messing up the lashes...I need more practice:-)

 

Have a good night!

 

Dick

Great colors and a pretty good portrait. Looks like we have a few PS gurus here.

Thanks Monte! I took this with my "bird" lens:-)

 

Have a good day!

Your series of portrait is really beautiful. But of course it would have been difficult to do bad with beautiful models like that ;-) Very nice. Regards, Jean-Marc

Practice definitely improves cloning (and probably your surgical skills). It also helps to have good trifocals like I do. LOL Oh, and a steady hand on the computer mouse doesn't hurt either!

Love the skin tones

Thank you, Jean-Marc, Kathy B and Alec!
