Dimples and Dirt
Uploaded: June 20, 2005
This is Matthew again with his devoted parents. Taken after a fun-filled day at the park.
20.3mm,1/400,f/4.0,ISO 100 Caught Dad in a half blink so the shot was no good for a family portrait but Matthew was smiling so sweetly that I couldn't scrap it altogether. Converted to b&w, made a blurred layer, pasted it on top, erased over Matthew to make him sharp, and cloned some distracting white blotches out of the background. I like how it came out. You get the feeling that Matthew shines because he's flanked by loving support.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
