Christmas Angel

Saw this post on the discussion board. This little one is so adorable I couldn't resist playing with the picture. I hope you like what I did Razzmatazz!
That is magical

@razzmatazz You have a beautiful granddaughter! I saw your post on the discussion board and just had to play with the shot. As this is not really my picture, I will not keep it here if you don't want me to. But you are welcome to copy it to your computer and keep it if you'd like. I really felt the tight crop was an excellent suggestion so started with that. That made the tv remote and another object on the sofa a little more obvious, so I cloned them out. I thought about sharpening the picture but then thought a soft focus really emphasized how sweet the little girl is and the soft lighting, so I left that as is. I then brought up the color and added a little more glow to the lights paying close attention to keeping the skin that soft pink. I hope you like it! She's absolutely precious!

Allison took the words right out of my mouth: pretty as a Christmas card! Those words are exactly what I thought when I scrolled up and saw your beautiful post.

you have done a beautiful job with this pic. I saw it yesterday in its original form. You are very clever with your processing and I love the glow on the little girls face. It depicts the wonder of Christmas. I am sure Razzmatazz will love it.

The crop really shows up the feeling of wonder on looking at the lights and tree. The little face us lovely and the light is beautiful.

Aw...a sweetie, and great lighting.
December 8th, 2015  
WOW what a great shot.. Frame it and hang it every Christmas!

@grammyn I don't mind that- but I do want people to know who's it really is.
@taffy Thanks Taffy- she's not mine though- I was just editing it for someone.
@jfitzroy50 Thanks Jim- if she was my granddaughter, I would definitely do that. But she does not belong to me. I was just playing around with the processing for someone else.

Isn't the lighting just magical. Precious

@henrir Thank you Henri! Although the original shot is not mine- it was fun to process it.

@olivetreeann Thank you so much! I love it! You are very talented. I don't mind if you keep it in your album, but I am definitely stealing it.
