Default Oh, To Be A Little Girl

I shot these yesterday, when Julia's friend came over to play. They spent the whole time in the land of make believe, being fairies and princesses and queens. I am slowly learning how to use photoshop 7, and these are far more processed than I would normally post, but somehow, they seem to lend themselves to it.

Martha, you have captured these so well and so natural looking too. I love to see the children playing, the last one is my favourite. That one is just priceless. This is excellent work Martha. Just what the doctor ordered. Thanks for sharing them.

Dave.

Great set. She doesn't even seem aware of the camera which makes it all the better as the poses aren't forced. Well done.

Wonderful series of pictures.I like nr 1 andf 2.Nr 3 seem to be a bit over exposed on the face and body of the cute girl.

Thanks for all the comment! And Dave, I'm glad to see your face on her

Yes, she is totally blown out - I've just been playing around with exposure in curves while I learn PS 7.

Hello Martha! I really like the second one best, She looks like a reluctant Princes though. l.o.l
By the way, That's what they make PS for is to try new techniques. I used ps 7.0 for years until they came out with CS4 and then I had to upgrade and add Lightroom, I love the power of these programs.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.
