I ♥ Faces - Week 2 - “Best Face Photo”





I have struggled and struggled and struggled for this. With so many competitors...

In the end it came down to this, simply because I love it.
I could edit it lots, but I loved it as it was, so this is just lightly exposure tweeked in Lightroom and smart-sharpened in Gimp - that's it's!

My son is looking out of the upstairs window of the barn we used this Christmas, staring at the snow, inches deep and beautiful outside! If you look carefully you can see a little of the scene reflected in his eye.


Now come on over and join in the birthday celebrations over at I ♥ Faces this week - see all the other 'best faces' that folks have entered. There's a party in the air!!

WOW - WOW - WOW!!!

I got picked Rebekah Westover's favourite this week. I am stunned & honoured ~ SHE is amazing. You must check out her work. CLICK HERE

Michael Howard also chose my shot as one of his top five ~ HE is pretty awesome too!
