Am I dreaming?

Uploaded: October 06, 2005 07:05:04

Description

This little boy was so cute. He and his family were from Tenn. and this was his first time seeing the ocean. He loved the boat I brought along as a prop too. Effects done with MTTC (dreamy, warmth & blue sky).

(Question: My PS is showing me colors that are different (when editing) than what I see when I put my pics on the web. I upgraded the ram in my comp. but wouldn't think this would cause it to happen. Any ideas?)

Maybe read your book about collaborating your program. That might help...not an expert though.
