Default Easy, Breezy, Beautiful...

This picture just reminds me of a covergirl! We went pumpkin and apple picking today and this was one of the shots I took

You captured a really nice shot, I like the way the sun lights up one side of her face,hair and body and the shadows fall nicely on the other side,as well as the movement in her hair. The back-ground is not distracting and still shows her environment.

I think that you titled it really well. It's also a really nice pose and everything. I'm just really into warm skin tones at the moment, so it seems a little on the cool side. Other than that, nicely done.

you really had fun in that pumkin patch.....

once again, nice depth of field work.....i was wondering though, what a portrait orientation would do for this......and maybe.....a warming filter to battle those blues.....

I agree with you peeperita! we did have fun and i would like to warm it up a bit but I have no idea how to do that! Photoshop is still a foreign language to me! I will give it a try but any hints you could give me would be helpful!

The capture was great, except I would try next time to not cut out the upper portion. The newest Photoshop offers a warming filter that may help out...

Try Image --> Adjustments --> Photo Filters and then select a warming filter from the list.

For your picture I actually did a two things. I lightened the shadows and darkened the highlights slightly (Image --> Adjustments --> Shadows / Highlights). Then I used the warming filter.
