Description
This is another shot of my daughter that needed help... The background was full of distractions, and we neglected to wash her scrubby little face before taking it, but I loved the childlike wonder in her expression... I know the orangy-reddish tones are kinda odd, but I tried every color the human eye can percieve, and this one worked best for me...
Credits:After dodging, (and burning)I brought back the sparkle in her eyes, as suggested to me by deannacathcart on my last Raven pic, and I'd especially like to thank her for that! The rest is me -n- Photoshop...
Thanxxx fer viewin, comments welcome...

What an adorable face! Love the joyful expression!
Full of character. I see she is going to be a little gypsy like her mommie.(ear studs) This is the last moment with all her baby teeth so tiny and charming.
She definately has a sparkle in her eye. She looks so happy and is defiantely a sweetie. Excellent work on the retouch.
Yeah, I would love to work on this shot 2 :) perfect work,
This Creature looks menacing! A real Home Wrecker if I ever saw One. Even the Uniform of Emaciated Cats is a sign that this Creature will stop at nothing to Win You over. Beware John! Muuuuuuuuuuuuah!!!
Beautfiull John,not you her!lol!:-)Byeeeeeee calum
such a delightful expression... hey daddy! :D... luv the red, glowy tone & the detail brought back to the eyes is right on! :]
She's a darling! A delightful expression indeed!... Keep capturing her childhood... wonderful memories for you and her in the future! Kids change a lot and very fast... I know from both of my kids (now 17 and 14 yrs)

Wonderfully captured moment, JD! :))) Raven is a cutie, looks great in red :D Lovely work.

I think it's wonderful! She is one precious little child. I think kids with dirty faces.. make cute pictures so you needn't have worried about that.. we know that kids don't come fresh washed all the time. The best picture I have of my grand daughter is of her eating sloppy joes..it's all over her face LOL
