Default My sister as a lolita :-)

So 1 month and two exams later after my first trial as a photographer I decided to pick up my (same old P&S) camera & start shooting (people) again
This time my model was my 14yo sister After a while playing with PS this came out. I didn't want her lips to look too red at first but then I saw how it draws attention to her pretty lips I decided to leave it that way.

What does C&C Stand for? Copy and Correct? I have no idea.

Anyway, the red seems a bit too overpowering to me. It draws away from what I think I'm supposed to be looking at.

You can't ask for C&C in the Share your Shots section.

I deleted that part of your thread for this section.

I also like the red lips. She is a beautiful model and you did a great job capturing that.

Some might like the red, others might not but I think that it captures what you were after artistically.

Thank you guys very much, I like the red too. And I agree with you(pjflan 7), I guess it's really a matter of susbjectivity, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the red looks good I'd be so doubtful about myself if I were
