Anyone for Baseball?

Uploaded: June 17, 2005

Description

One more from my June 10th practice portrait session with my nephew. Might be the last from this series, although I still have a lot of great photos from that day. I just feel it might be time to move on.

This was taken in my home in the afternoon using only natural light from a window. My camera was on the portrait mode. I then edited with Paint Shop Pro 6. I used Unsharp Mask, brightened the photo, increased the contrast, converted to sepia, and added noise for an old fashioned look.

I was so happy to make finalist, I was stunned when I got the email! Although, my husband pointed out something about this photo that really bugs me now. The mitt is on the wrong hand!!! Me being a girl, I just didn't notice! My husband saw this photo, and noticed immediately. Darn! Now it really bothers me, but it's my first finalist ever, so I have to leave it on my gallery. :o) #1637256
