10,000




So this year I promised myself that I would take about 10,000 pictures of the kids. I think that maybe overkill to both the camera(more shutter mileage) and children(they're already starting to get irritated when daddy starts pointing the lens at them). I already took enough good pictures of them this year to fill a shelf of albums so I have a different approach in mind. Anyhow these two pictures I'm posting was from yesterday, the day of their school concert - can't believe how kids grow up so fast...and I mean fast....even faster then bilis

Sharp pictures or Soft Dreamy ones...is that the question?


I've been having trouble lately with editing the pictures we take. The debate is whether to have a soft finish or sharp finish on pictures. With a soft finish, the skin becomes more creamier and the whole composition of the piece has this dreamy effect. On the other side of the inverse flip side, a sharp finish, where the colors, tones and edges just pop out of the picture which enhances the focal point of your piece and possibly everything else. So the picture on this post is the sharpened version of the third picture from the prior post...what to go with generally-to me it's a toss up.
