Father and Son

Posted by Jen (Alpharetta, United States) on 1 April 2007 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

This is Mike and Daniel again (I realized that yesterday's post didn't show my husbands face, duh Jen!!).
This was taken at the top of Clingman's Dome in the Smoky Mountains in October 1990.

I know it's a bit noisy and the color is so so, but I didn't really want to mess with the original too much, nor do I have the expertise either : )

I have pre-posted images for the next several days, but I will be unable to get online to comment : (

I hope everyone has a wonderful week and I can't wait to see all your fabulous images when I get back!!

I have uploaded some of my favorite images to redbubble for sale http://www.redbubble.com/people/jenseye
Please go check it out and if there is something you like in my portfolioi here on Am3 that isn't posted on redbubble please let me know and I can upload for purchase. Thank you!

I like it. Nice how he trusts his father not to drop him off the highest point in Tennessee. I found a nice easy way to mildly adjust this photo is to use your color picker to select one of the lightest shades of blue near the washed-out white part. Then use your magic wand to select the white area and use the bucket to fill it in with the adjacent baby blue. There are about 3 areas that benefit greatly from that.

Sweet photo. I love the way they are both looking in the exact same spot. Moments that you will cherish always. They grow up far too fast.

Now that's a handsome guy right there =D You're certainly very blessed Jen =D
I don't think you should do anything to the photo...its just amazing in its colour range and the noise only lends it the softness that only time provides. Amazing!
