Description

So I guess it is officially "silly face week" in my gallery! :)

This is my friend's grandson again. He had lots of good silly faces for me that day.

This was shot in the mid evening light. I tightly cropped it and blended several layers and then burned the BG. :)

Exif: F Number: 3.5, Exposure Bias Value: +0, Exposure Time: 10/3200, Flash: flash did not fire, ISO: 125, White Balance: manual white balance, Focal Length: 10mm, Camera Model: DSC-H5

LOVE the expression! lots of fun...great clarity in the eyes...the most important part. it might just be my lousy monitor here at work...but the highlights might be just the slightest bit hot...but not really a big deal!

very nicely done!! #4881312

Thanks Joan and Christopher.

Christopher...I'm so glad you mentioned that, yes you are right!!

I worked and worked with this. It would look good and then as soon as I would upload it to BP, the image looked completely different. The tones, highlights and everything would look completely flat, so I would play with it more...

Anyway, I have this problem ALOT whenever I try to upload a BW image. Is it just me or do others have this problems as well?? It is so frustrating!
