72/365: Sweet Brian

I've been admiring everyone's gorgeous photos of their kids with bright, big eyes with lovely catchlights. I tried my hand at the catchlights thing by having Brian pose for me outside, using the light to create the highlights naturally.

Even with the highlights from the natural light, I tried to dodge more detail out in PSE. Ackkkk.....I think I over did it on his right eye....



I'll try again tomorrow. Maybe, just maybe, I'll be able to convince (bribe) Erica to pose for me.

Aww Brian is a handsome guy! Love this pic and I think both his eyes look just great!

I think it looks great! I love your asparagus picture below too! (DH grills our asparagus--yum.)

I think its GORGEOUS actually. I love that its so clear that we can see you in the reflection. That is just amazing. Brown eyes can be so tough, but I think when you get them right...like you did...they are the most beautiful.

I don't think you overdid the eyes at all. The color still looks really natural which is what I think happens with eyes mainly. You maintained the color but just enhanced the light-nice job.

Cute boy, Shirley! I think his eyes look fine.

I think it looks good. It's hard to get that glassy-eyed look with such dark eyes, you did a great job!

His eyes look great, love the reflections in them too! I don't know what you mean by dodging them, but think they definitely don't look overdone. :)
