Okay, I did lots of GIMP experimenting this week. I cropped both of these photos, and in the first I just increased the contrast and left it like that. With the second, I played around with a few different settings: I posterized it, therefore reducing it to a limited set of colors; I increased the "curve"; I decreased the brightness a bit; and I changed the color balance, adding some more blue. I wouldn't normally play around with a photo so much, but it was fun to experiment.



These kids are very natural at having their picture taken. Great job and thanks for sharing your experiences!
ReplyDeleteI like these in the top the light in the middle accentuates your subject. In the lower one it is all diffused and pastels...
