I have retouched this image croping in closer and brighting the color - I would like critiqued on the photo quality and image improvement. I haven't posted a photo here before so not quite sure what to ask - thanks Lauren

this is the original so you have somthing to compare the final to

do you have a larger version of that picture?
it's hard to critique when it's that small.

I don't think you should have cut out the water in the final picture, I think it added to the original. But, the colors are definitely better in the final edit, so that was well done. I can't really comment on the image quality because the picture is so small, but the grass in the final edit does seem a bit out of focus, whereas in the first one when it's more pulled back you can't really notice it.

All in all, it's still a pretty shot!

heres a bigger copy - i wasn't sure how big to post it It seems when i cropped in and adjusted the colors it blurred the background - i was playing around with the Portriat Professional software - free trial to see if i liked it.
