    Peek-a-boo

    This is a shot of my niece peeking out from her homemade fort of pillows. I wish the pillow in the front right did not take up so much room. Any suggestions?

    Man the pillow is fine. Just a tad more brightness on the eyes and you are good as far as I am concerned. Nice shot.

    The pillow doesn't bother me at all. Her beautiful eyes are what grabbed me. The color in her eyes and lips are great, I think, but her skin tone seems a little blue? maybe -- but it may be my monitor.

    Yeah, maybe it is the skin tone. Something about the face could use a bit more punch, but the basic shot is way cool.

    I think that the face is slightly washed out, otherwise a very expresive and worthy effort.

    Warm up the skin tones just a touch and this is perrrrfect.

    I appreciate the positive comments. I agree with the skin-tones comments. I have CS4. What would be the best feature to use to work on the skin tones?
