{I Heart Faces} Fix It Friday #83

It’s hard to believe we’re already at the end of the week. Seems like each week goes faster and faster.

Today we woke up to a snowy morning here in NYC and of course the girls were hoping for school to be closed, but fortunately for me, 3 to 4 inches of snow doesn’t call for school closings!!

I had a pocket of quiet time this morning so I thought I would get a jump start on this week’s Fix It Friday.

Here is the original photo taken straight out of the camera (SOOC) As a reminder, this is not my photo, it’s from a contributor over at the I Heart Faces site.

Fix-It Friday #83

Here are my 2 edits – I cropped them both and lightened the background. I really wanted the focus to be on the boy and the rock I made a color version as well as black & white. I think I like the black & white one better. I usually do 🙂

    Forgot to mention I also adjusted the levels separately on the boy and rock.
