Hi gang!

This adorable flower girl paused to greet Tamalyn midway down the aisle at a wedding earlier this month. Notice anything in particular about her? Your thoughts and comments...

And which do you prefer, BW or Color?

Merci Beaucoup for your posts! hug.gif

Too Cute!

I'm partial to the B&W version.

I really like the shot but your BW conversion needs a little bit more work. Instead of just converting to greyscale open Channel Mixer, select monochrome and turn down the red channel and turn up the green channel and add a little of the blue. Duplicate the layer and select multiply, erase everything but the dress and then burn the face on the original layer.

Hey, Sean,

Great to hear from you! And thanks for your comment!! rolleyes.gif
By the way, who's that cute young lad on your profile?

Brady,
Thanks a bunch for the advice! You're awesome!thumbsup: The photo was actually converted to BW via "BW GM warm 1 + snappy." Appreciate the "redo" also!!

You know, I don't even remember her sticking out her tongue at me! She was walking by so fast!! biggrin.gif

The bw version has been re-done: same BW GM warm 1 + snappy but with added contrast to everything but her dress.

Brady, your version is great. But I tend to like my black and whites look like bw film - with a pleasing skin tone. The Channel Mixer tends to make the reds (esp. lips) look a little too black for my taste.

Ok I will ask .... what does "BW GM warm 1 + snappy" mean?
