Through my girlfriend, Brenda (check out her website here),
I found a website called I Heart Faces.
It has definitely become my "GO TO" website for all things photography. I've learned quite a bit to help me hone my budding photography skills.
Every Friday, they have a photo challenge, where they have a photo made available for downloading,
so you can practice your editing skills.
This is the first Friday that I have participated.
Here is the original photo.

And here is my "Fix-It".

Using Picnik, I did the following edits:
1. Rotated the photo
2. Cropped the photo
3. Worked with the Color and reduced the Saturation slightly
4. Made photo Black & White and then
slightly faded the color back in
5. Applied the Orton-ish tool and then
slightly faded back to original

Cute edit. The crop makes it look like she has pulled up to standing and the picture is taken looking down at her.
OH! That's such a creative crop! Love it!
Hey there, thanks so much for stopping by Nitty Gritty Photography! I LOVE the rotation, it definitley makes the photo much more engaging. The blur on the edges make the picture very much 'sweet princess'.
Very interesting crop! Makes for a really cute photo.
