An image taken during a photo shoot of newborn twins. Using inspiration from Anne Geddes, I tried on of her techniques. Taken with a single strobe and black background, this image took a bit of PS as I had gotten more of the cheesecloth than I wanted. Most of the editing was to reduce the white of the cloth.
RAW file adjusted in Lightroom and imported to PS. BG selected and contrast reduces. Curves, Saturation, Shadow/Highlight all on babies. Cloned out a blob on the cloth. Dodge/burn with grey layer in Overlay. Sharpened with Photokit Sharpener, saved for web.
This is different that most, so I have no idea how it will be taken.
Hoped for score 6.4, but it could bomb completely.

This is a nice idea. I'm not sure how it could be done better to make the babies the focus of the image. As it is, the mesh cloth and the arm/hand are the focal points.
