Input anyone?

[Erynne]

ok...
The camera I use is a Fujifilm finepix S700, I've never really used the Manual settings on it. but figured I ought to give it a shot, so here's what I've Got.
I used my 3 month old Daughter as my subject since she's the easiest one at home that I had to work with (since She's not allowed to really have an oppinion) ^_^









Thanks!

My first comment was that they need to be worked...but since you said they came straight out of the camera... :)

I'd touch them up before you post for C&C... composition is pretty good, but can't make an honest comment unless they are the final product...

I'd work the contrast, sharpen them up, crop them and then re-post :)

ok...I fixed them up.. I think anyway. I wasn't really sure what I needed to do though :/

Erin I did not see the post until you said you had "fixed" them. But your white balance is off. Causing them to look yellow.I don't know if that was caused when they were scanned or if they looked that way.
I took one and adjusted the balance and touched up her face, to give you and idea. I hope you don't mind.

In Camera raw adjust your color balance.
I adjusted your jpeg in ps, image, adjustments, color balance.

I set the White balance before i took the pic, that made a big difference in and of it's self
