Default girl by the river - before and after picnik



it was down by the river - reprocessed

I can't tell you precisely what I did - but I played with several options that picnik offers. I sharpened everything, and then used the feature "fancy focus" to just keep my daughter's face in focus. I also changed the colors, exposure and contrast. I am still not happy with the too focused area next to her nose, but picnik has it's limits - and my time and budget too .

I'm usually not a fan of picnik, but you managed to use it well. Nice edit! It made quite the difference!

I like the composition and color. It could be a bit brighter to make it pop. But otherwise good job.
