dreamy photo

[vickistark]

Well, I took this outside photo at the wrong time of day but what ya gonna do babies gotta have naps. I had to do a lot of tweaking in photoshop to get it to come out like I wanted. I wanted a dreamy looking image. What do you think?

I think you are conveying your idea of what you wanted, but the sun was so bright that your post processing isn't working for the photo. Baby's skin tone is too far out of wack. Possibly waiting for the area to be shaded might work out better. Then you can lighten areas that you want to have a dreamy look and keep baby's skin healthy looking.

Yeah I know! I told baby's Mama we need to a do over to get the lighting right one afternoon. That day we were ready to take pics early but she had to have a nap and threw the whole thing off.
