On Friday, we had an exhibit opening. This girl, Jordan, was one of our little artists. She was very sullen and did NOT want to be photographed with her art.
In addition, she had this crazy cute little brother who was getting a lot of attention.
At some point I was sitting in my office and saw her standing in the gallery all by herself. So I took a shot. The photo quality was poor - consequently I messed with it.
Rotated, cropped, cloned out some stuff that got in the way in the foreground and then did some extreme levels on it.
Here's the same image with the vintage filter on it - area around the girl erased a bit.
Just goes to show that it's possible to create a great photograph from what might have been a terrible shot. As long as the subject is interesting, anyway, and what you have here is a great story. Nicely done.
i havent commented in the last couple of days or even looked in our slice of life so this was a surprise to me when i went into pick your fav pic .. its totally brilliant .. a wonderful and emotive image .. i prefer it to the dark one .. :)
