Thanks for your feedback everyone! As always it is much appreciated. #739123Colleen Braun August 27, 2004
an awesome capture and the B&W is great, the rattan on the left of her is a little distracting... #739177Wendy M. Amdahl August 27, 2004
Yeah, she was sitting in a chair with a pillow behind her. I thought about trying to get rid of it, as if she were actually against a backdrop. But, everytime I try to clone around hair, (which I would have had to do here)...it looks fake or just not right. So I decided to just go with the textures instead. If anyone has any suggestions for how to clone around wispy hair and make it look natural...I'm interested! Thanks for your feedback Colleen! #739195Amanda Price August 27, 2004
Ooh, I'd like to know that too!! Great capture though! #739342Debra Booth August 27, 2004
