Hey, So i got these three Pictures. The girl is My Daughter, (our only one for now) and just like any grandaughter should be She is Treasured by my Mom. For Christmas coming up I wanted to have one of these New Pictures that I took framed for a gift. So the reason from the Post is to help me Decide on which is Better.

All three photos are great. I like the first one best though, because you can see her face.

I would also go with the first one. The others are nice as well, but I think I would prefer to see her face.

Think you all so much for your opinions, I always appreciate comments and suggestions of all kinds. I think its so hard to choose. I myself love the first one and even though the others are just as nice, Her grandmother is going to want to see her face like everyone was suggesting.

Jesswhs1323 I would love any advice you have on editing, i will be the first to admit that I'm very new in the field of Digital and in turn very new in Editing. And just a side note i checked out your Website and it blew me away, the graphics and "Flash" make the site just pop so well. And the Photos are amazing I especially like the brides in different locations, outside the church very Cool!

I say get one of those frames with the three 5x7 mats all side by side, put the one where you can see her gorgeous little face in the middle and the other two on the outside and give her all 3 shots, cause she'll love them all.

I have always loved the 5x15 prints from Mpix....i think a collage with all three of these would be very cool.

WOW! how nice! It feel so good to get a compliment like that =)

I can take credit for the site though... thats bludomain.com =)

Here is my take at it. I just did auto contrast to darken the wall a little and make her stand out a little more. Just a idea though... the image is great without it!
