BTW, I cloned a little into that forehead area. Although we shot it in a shady area there was a bit of a hot spot there from the sun. I darkened the background by selecting it, and then Apply Image / Multiply
sent you a PM with a link to it will post here too



I added a layer duplicated two bottom one I gaussian blurred then the second pic layer above just soft blend and reduced opacity a touch to get the softness.. the third pic layer I kept all the family but deleted the background and reduced the opacity a touch to bring some of the softness through but to retain the clarity... the blank layer I painted out the background in dark colour around the family and then used multiply blend and reduced the opacity till the flowers showed through a bit ... Hope you like
