Fix It Fridays ...

FixItFriday

Ok. It's no secret to you all that I love the fun, inspirational, creative and educational space that Amy & Angie have created over at I Heart Faces. But I especially love their site today. Because today, for their Friday Fix It, they are using an image I took of Littlest Dude. It's a sweet photo, but soooo very blah SOOC. And while I love taking photographs, I must admit ... it's so very true ... I'm not a Photoshop genius, and I'm not terribly creative. So what a treat it has been today to see the magical images that have been created by the I Heart Faces contributing photographers and the individuals who have linked their edits in Mr. Linky. All sorts of editing programs have been used (including some totally free ones!!). Go and see and be inspired!

Be sure not to miss Jodi's tutorial!
And, for sure, go see both these special edits:
Sharon's at Flip'n Crazy
and Teresa's at Art from the Heart.

Your edits are always amazing but it helps when the SOOC shot is pretty spectacular too! I loved working with this photo this week! It was "easy" because the photo was so great. I loved the composition and the tear on the cheek was just oh-so-sweet! Thanks for letting us "play" with your photo and for the great tutorials!

Love the first one. Very natural and quite lovely.

Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog! Figured I would return the favor with a comment too. :o)

Thanks for giving us such a wonderful photo to edit. I have just been watching and admiring the last couple fit-it fridays, but this photo was too compelling not to join in! :)

Bah, you take AMAZING photos. Who needs Photoshop with a photographer like you. hehe

Thanks for the links, Susan. I loved Teresa's poem--and that she preserved the tear! What a treasure!

I like them all, maybe a bit more partial towards the first one.

So what does this Dude think about his picture being on a bunch of peoples websites, he's famous :).

I had a lot of fun working on this picture of yours.

Have a great weekend,
B Dad
