Thanks, A. I have an action set in Photoshop with gaussian blur applied with the history tool, quite effective to achieve softer skin appearance. I lightened overall and sharpened a bit. I enhanced the lashes and eyes by using dodge/burn. Shutter Speed 1/60, Aperture Value 4.5, ISO Speed 1600,Laurence Saliba May 05, 2005

Thank you everyone. I really appreciate all the wonderful feedback! #1323462Karen J. McDowell June 21, 2005
I can't think of a bigger honor than to receive a response from the judges, thank you so much! I captured this totally by accident. I sort of favor candid people shots so it was a wonderful surprise when I uploaded this. I don't even think the settings were appropriate for this shot but was glad to see it turned out. The "toy" I'm referring to in the title is my camera :) #1496825Laura Clay-Ballard June 21, 2005
