Default 3 month old baby girl - color question
Just a quick question on this one - is the color too cool, or too pink? Something is bugging me, maybe just that she is fair skinned and there is a lot of pink. Thanks!

I'm thinking it is just a bit too pink. I see a pink hue in the infants face but her back seems just fine. Maybe it's my imagination. But it is a very cute photo.

I was wondering if that was the cause. Thanks.

Yes I think that is what is bugging me - her face seems to have a cast from the fur. Now just to figure out how to remove it...

the easiest way is to use the desaturate tool and set to the softest at 10% opacity and brush the pinkish areas of the face. this is the '' lazy way ''
