[sandik17]

I am excited...I am really happy with this b and w dreamy effect photo.

Would you creative people give me some ideas...or critique it please.

Sandra, that is so adorable. I would personally do a soft light gray vignette around it to soften and blend the edges more. Did you do this from the PhotoBlast demo?

[sandik17]

No, I actually did it from the black and white tutorial....and then the free dream studio program that we are able to get when we subscribe.

Hi Sandra ...

Oh that is just beautiful !! :)

I would keep the frame very simple and plain. Try just a black stroke around it ... or a white one.

That is an absolutely beautiful photo! Like Wendy, I think simple will be best for framing this one...

[Punkinsmom]

I would keep it simple because the photo speaks for itself. Wendy's suggestion would be a good start.

[Berengaria]

I agree with Wendy. Keep the frame simple. Fancy frames only distract from the picture and yours is perfect as is.

Sandra,

I noticed the photo in your gallery this morning. I think it is perfect just as it is!:)

What a classically beautiful photo! I agree -- keep it simple.

I showed my husband, and he just loved it...so this is the one I'm going to get put onto canvas for him!

ps thanks for the comments...this is really the first photo that I am 'thrilled' with.

That's beautiful- I noticed it when I was browsing through the gallery. And, you got the big seal of approval from my four year old daughter, and she wanted to know about the children in the picture! :)

Thanks so much Kay
I know what you mean about your daughter...I'm forever showing my son photos from Elements here, saying how beautiful they are and he....completely missing the 'skill' in the photograph, wants to know who the person is in the photo!!
It was taken in 2005 when we were on holidays and they had to sleep in a double bed together...it was the first time they had to share a bed...and it was a bit of a novelty for all of us. I'm so glad I got that photo though, and that they were in their white singlets on the white sheets.
Thanks again.

Sandra,

I don't have enough fashion sense to tell you how to frame it - but I can tell you that I really, really like it. You did a great job with this.

I tried doing some stuff to it , but it is such a good picture that it doesn't need any help.
