Snapshot Upgrade

Hi,

This is an upgrade from an out of focus snapshot to an anniverary momento for the featured couple.

The result was well received by the couple but how say you folks?

Indigo, very nice job, and if the couple concerned are happy with the finished product, then that is what matters.

For me the colours were a little flat, so I tweaked the brightness and contrast a little with levels and curves, and sharpened it just a little. The intention was just to draw out the couple from the background a little.

Thanks Gary. I feel that your contribution has definately improved the result. Shows how one can become blind to the potential of an image after having worked on it for a while. Perhaps I am looking at the 'improvement' from the original rather than having a vision of the 'new' to aim for. Will shift my way of thinking.

Thank you for taking the time to share your skills.
