Woohoo! I almost forgot how much fun Photoshop is!

I've been using LR2 for almost a year now and only using PS Elements (6) to apply watermarks. After my recent posts I took the image I posted earlier today and played around with it a bit more.

SOOC


First Run, removed drool and adjusted color/lighting


Final, added more Gaussian Blur to the background


Thoughts?

It's also documented on my blog Rice Bowl Photography 365 Project | Day 14

Good stuff! The average Joe just doesn't realize what goes into the making of a good image.

- "Course if I had a nice camera like that I could take good pichures too."

Thank you! No, and even for me having not done it in a year or so I had forgotten how much time is involved. Trial and error, seeing what works, remembering to use the "feathering" to smooth out edges, lol! But it was fun :)

My only thing is I happen to LOVE drooly babies :P But I like the final result.
