There is a right and wrong way for doing many things in photoshop. What I told you to do is the wrong way to make adjustments. You should always use layers that way you are not altering the original shot. As I am unaware of your skill level with photoshop, I just mentioned the quickest way but not the best. Anyway, glad you could see the difference, if I can help further please send an email to clive24@gmail.com

Sorry, I should have said, move the right hand slider in toward the centre.

Mike, The image is a little flat (lacking contrast). All you need to do to adjust this is, (if you have photoshop) go to adjustment/levels and bring in the left hand slider until you get a nice skin tone. This will give the image quite a big lift and give you more bang for the bucks :-)

 adjusted with levels. |

Hey Mike . . . cute lil one here. A couple of thoughts come to mind that I'll throw out for you to consider. First, I think you should crop it so that the subject is pulled out of the center . . . making the shot a bit more dynamic. Second . . . the tonal range here suggested to me that this would be a good candidate for a black & white conversion. (I attached an example). As with most B&W conversions, slight changes in midtones, contrast and light levels help make the conversion stronger so I did look into that too. Just a thought or two! :)
