Pure Serendipity Entwined _resub

Uploaded: August 27, 2011

Description

I thought that the heavy vignette may have altered the composition, so I worked this again. Used the history tool with the opacity slider to reduce some of the vignetting in her hand.

Used tonal contrast in Nik Color Efex Pro3 Complete to bring back some detail into her rings.

Finished with Picture Code Noise Ninja at standard setting to reduce some of the noise, and sharpened slightly.



Exif: F Number: 3.5, Exposure Bias Value: -0.33, ExposureTime: 1/60 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 1250, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 50D

Thank you, Chris, Datha, Bob, and Marcie for your comments. After a couple false starts, I think I have the image the way I wanted. At least, until I learn more about Nik's filters.

I appreciate each of your comments. Your guidance means so much to me. :-)

This is very nice! I like the soft vignette bringing the focus to the hands and feet. A darling image and a sweet keepsake! #9637671

Thank you, Michele and Aimee. I like this better than the one which BP gave an EP. But, they did not recognize this one at all, perhaps, because of their minute staff. #9647660
