It is my cousin and her new husband. I wanted to send them an 8.5x11 print of it but I think the background could be different.

I will accept both serious and silly posts. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks OOT!

For old times sake...

That one is nice but I think it maybe could use a little more light. Just my $.2.

Errrr, that last one got a bit soft/hazy.

I think I need a shower, maybe I'll give it another go later...

i don't really know what i'm doing but i gave it a shot (i work in a professional photo lab but i do color analyzing not retouching /images/graemlins/tongue.gif ).
i didn't do much, cropped it, took the people out of the background, reduced shine & blemishes on his forehead, and tried to remove her redeye.

the file size is only 1.89mb after cropping it down a little to size, is this the original file ? that is getting kinda small for 8.5x11 print. it might look pixelated when it is printed but you might be ok.

OOT pulls through again.

Gorie, are you able to make the one you did larger with the same quality? I like that one the best so far.

PS Aren't they adorable?!?!

i increased the resolution / file size, but the quality depends on your original image which was only about 2mb , which is not a very large file to begin with for an 8x10. but i think it will look alright.

Gorie, I love you!

That is so freaking awesome. I can't wait to get it printed and have it waiting at their door when they get back from their honeymoon!

Nice work Gorie.

OP, if you plan print this at home, and this is the largest file size you have, download the evalulation copy of QImage (http://www.ddisoftware.com/qimage/).

It does the best job of interpolation I have seen. It will help a great deal with the print quality.

damn, yes it does...

I fixed it on my first attempt, then re-did the pic from scratch and forgot to fix the red-eye... plus I was doing this when I should have been on my way to thanksgiving dinner so it was a bit of a rush...

that didn't come out quite as well as I think is possible (bare in mind I'm no photoshop expert)... I use an action called Walrus Fantasy Focus that I got from Adobe Studio Exchange a few years back. I took a quick look but couldn't find it there... there are some others there, just search on 'soft focus'. Or PM me and I will email you the action I use, if you are interested.
