This is an outtake from the Overexposed challenge. This is Abigail. I can't help it, this is favorite shot from September, so you are again subjected to my lovely daughters!
PP: levels, curves, bw adjustment layer, duplicate background layer in overlay blend mode set at 80%, flatten, resize, smart sharpen with mask, USM to light eyes a smidgen, cloned out some hair and a bit of the dress, Gaussian blur fade 40% then mask for hair and eys lab mode/soft light 30% channel a, RGB mode, save for web. Did not seem like that much PP as it was rather quick.

As she lay her head in her hand, giving one final smile, she was also weary. Although she loved being in front of the camera, she was missing her favorite show, and her legs were sore, and her underwear was riding, and she was getting kind of hungry and she really liked those fruit snacks you know those ones that looked like dinosaurs and maybe she kind of wanted peanut butter crackers but maybe not because they were out of milk and boy daddy is taking a long time with this shot and I wonder what Haley is doing right now maybe she's playing at the park boy I'd love to go the park right now I'll have to ask oh look there's a fly in here I sure don't like flies what time is it I wonder if...
This makes me smile. What a wonderful portrait! I like the high key look. It reminds me of the adorable portraits that TimfytheToo does of his beautiful daughter.
