Hey! Nice shots! This is my first at PPing anyone elses photo. I tried my best to blend the lines away and touch up the subjects left eye (I thought it was a bit hazy). I sharpened it and included a crop. Hope you like it! Let me know.

Very cool. I showed my wife, I said "look how he took out the cushion line". She said, "what line, what are you talking about?"

I like it alot, and the eye looks better too.

He has beutiful eyes, so I played around with that. Used the method I learned in one of the tutorials and added just a bit of color. I liked the green on his jammies, so I put the color back in there on the trim and his eyes. Then cropped it tighter. (not sure if it is too close of a crop)

Default What's the etiquette?

Ok - first off, this forum is the very best way I've ever found to spend time on the internet. Secondly, what's the etiquette with using/printing some of the photos you guys have polished up?

villafane928 - yup, you're right about the flash, unfortunately, I find myself relying heavily on flash. I'll work on it.

I'm not sure with the offical stance is but I have no problem if you used my versions. I've gotten sooo much help from these forums I'm glad I could give back a bit.

p.s. If you don't want to use the flash as much dial up your ISO (400/800/1600) and/or use apreture priority set to your widest setting.

You're welcome to use mine too, if you like. I appreciate you letting me take a stab at it.
