An Irish Lullaby - Take 3


	An Irish Lullaby - Take 3 Teena wearing her hat, this is my third attempt from the critiques I have been given, thank you all but no time to re-do it again lol. I used Corel Painter Essentials this time and hand painted her. The head gear are fairy wings that were too small so I put them on her head. HA. I do like this image as she is so sweet!Lovely profile! Graham took this shot if I remember correctly. ExposureTime : 1/500Sec FNumber : F2.8 ISOSpeedRatings : 250 FocalLength : 100.00(mm) Graham Robards

An Irish Lullaby take 3.

Thank you Cheryle Debbie (I love your dog btw! Aimmee and Dale). Your words meant a lot!

This time I took the image into Painter Essentials and painted over everything and made the colour tad brighter, I could not see the spots but just in case I re-did it.

Teena does remind me of an Irish Washerwoman now and the crop is divine, thank you Dale.

on 7/7/2008 1:42:16 PM How did I miss this? Guess I had a busy week last week! So cute as usual Pat! You are better with your dogs than I am with my kids! I really want to do portrait type stuff, but it is seeming very difficult for me! I'm not sure if you can see this on your screen, but I can see spots that you missed in cloning. Right above her nose there is a spot and all around the top of her hat and above it there are spots! Give it another look and maybe tilt your screen a few different ways to see if it shows up! Such a cute idea!

on 7/7/2008 3:48:26 PM I'll tell you what....the day I get Sampson to wear a hat, I will send you a picture of him. I would guess that would be never, so here is one I took this weekend. He's what I'd call a good model, so long as it's "Au Naturel"...

And yes, Aimee, I know his nose is out-of-focus. Such it is with golden retriever noses. If you get the eyes, you usually don't quite get the nose. Of course if I'd had a tripod maybe I could have gotten it more in focus but then he'd get up for sure and come sniffing at the tripod.

on 7/8/2008 3:22:29 AM Thank you Dale for your advice, I cloned and then added another background to bring Teena further onto the right hand side.
It did work out well,thank you. The had has given me an idea for another image. HA! ~Pat
