Description

I got to take some new shots of my oldest today... Haven't got my camera out in a while...
This was taken indoors with studio lights. I changed to b/w in VP with the fashion filter and adjusted the levels.
Cloned a piece of hair from her eye and used the USM and Smartblur all in PS.
Thanks for looking!

Great photo, Kara. It's a good thing you got your camera back out! I like your comp, and I like the way she has her hat tipped over one eye. Your b/w conversion worked very well, too. #3945062
