Testing new tricks…

I’ve been wanting to test some of the tricks I’ve learned in my studio class, with natural light. Needless to say, the girls’ shirts were NOT the best for this exercise … in the room that I chose.

But, I did get quite a few great photos which are in the February album. I was also testing out my 30 day trial of Photoshop CS2 — and in less than 8 hours I think I’m back to the “I need to buy it” decision… which I have been avoiding for nearly a year because it’s sooooo expensive.

I just really liked the shadows and coloring in this. 🙂 At first Abby was down with the pedals… and then she got up and bonked her head on a corner (Ouch!) and Emi came to give her a hug, so we departed and I stopped taking pictures for the day. 😉
