A Walk in the Park

Uploaded: October 07, 2007

Description

This is my daughter Kayla and her dog Milo taking a walk in the park. Kayla was wearing a light blue tutu and I just couldn't resist getting a shot of her in it! I used a super-saturated version at 60% opacity layered over one that I had used a contours effect on and this was the end result.

SUPER cool effects on this image, Marta! Absolutely LOVE the colors, love the area this is shot in! It looks so pretty there! (So, she didn't mind being 'caught' in the 'tu-tu'???) Well, I just think this is 'TU-TU' cool! ;) #756021

Thank you so much D!!! She was so pissed off at me by the time I let her stop walking up and down this path!!! I just couldn't help myself and begged her to do it for me. The hillarious thing is that this is the very first shot I took!!! #4894262

TOO funny!!! What we put our kids through to 'get that shot', huh??? I just had Sara outside in her 'fairy' dress doing all sorts of poses for me and got totally fed up when I kept her in one position too long! Hopefully she loved the outcome of this! It truly is a beautiful artistic piece! #4894556

This certainly is saturated, Marta. Isn't there an unnecessary amout of purple introduced here? :)
If the dog's name was Toto, I can think of a wonderful title! Tutu Takes Toto Toodling.

Thank you very much Angela, Steve, SuSana, Nadine, Kimi, Pamela, W.John and Sandra! Your comments are greatly appreciated!!!

D...It is too funny what our poor, poor children have to go through!

Steve...I think there is JUST EXACTLY the right amount of purple!!! I do love your title though! This does kind of remind me of the Wizard of Oz. #4904953
