Touch Up Tuesday

Filed Under: Photography

This is from a photo shoot I did last Saturday. I am still behind on editing, but thought this was perfect for Simplicity’s photo challenge Dreaming of Summer.

SOOC:

I brightened this up in camera raw. Then used Pioneer Woman’s Boost action. I also straightened it, because as you can see in the SOOC the horizon is crooked. Then used coffee shops color block it action. I love using that when posting on the web. It rounds the corners and sharpens and resizes all in 1 action.

These girls are definitly dreaming that it was summer.

    I think I'm joining the color block action downloaders (thanks for that - I love Coffee Shop). Beautiful capture. The girls are so immersed in their project and it makes a stunning photo.
