 My daughter, Tucker Rose. She was bored. I was bored. So...got out the camera and was taking some pics of her. We both got down on the floor, and I said, "ok, now look sad" and this is what she gave me! I think she did pretty good :-) Then I thought, hey, that would work good for the greeting card challenge...so here it is, I guess we'll see if others agree :-P

Had a bright lamp on in the room, and used the on board flash, with the ev turned down to -7, and exposure comp. to -3. In ps- cropped, usm, contrast adj, then a screen layer. Tri-tone, then a levels adj, and another slight contrast adj, then a curves adj. Resized and one more very light usm pass.

Thanks for checking out my pic :-)

Hey Tater - She is a cutie! As most others said, great expression, bad focus. Just too soft. I gave it a 5. I'm sure you had fun though!

Great expression, I just wish it were crisper, the lighting suits the mood.

I like the use of B/W and the expression is good also, it's just too blurry for my taste.

Very nice pose and emotion, but the blurriness and artifact would make me pass over it at the card store.
