Feeling Better, Edit, and Flowers

DSC_0812
My baby girl is finally feeling better, not 100% yet but maybe in a week or so.  That flu virus was scary, and strangely I didn't get sick but my husband did, usually it's the other way around.  
One Day At A Time



I was so excited to see the photo of Bennett in Edit Me this week, he is such a cutie.

Opened in Picnik, adjusted white balance, added a little contrast, warmed the shot with an orange screen tint.  Made the eyes pop by boosting the color only in his eyes just a little bit.  Cropped and sharpened for the web.
My Reflection of Something

And just for fun here are some photos of flowers that I took when Lucy and I went for a walk yesterday.  I had a smaller aperture f/9 for the first photo so I could get more of the flower parts in focus, I think it worked.  But I didn't remember to do that for the last shot, because, as you can see, not all of it is in focus.  And I had my iso set too high.  Oh well, live and learn, I still like them.  Critiques welcome.

    Glad your daughter's feeling better, nothing worse than a sick child, breaks your heart and so tiring.
    Love your yellow flower!

    So glad to hear she is doing better. That is so hard to see your little one feeling poorly.

    Love the shot though- you two take the best photos together.
