[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A boy receives a brightly coloured nylon tent/tunnel set for Christmas. Hours of ecstasy ensue.

This image initially contained a lot more grain since it was taken at ISO 400 (I was desperate to make this picture work in the very dark tunnel!) I've done some work with a noise reduction program to minimize that. This resulted in a blurry face so I used two sharp masks in soft light at 100%. I then isolated the front tunnel reds and increased the saturation by 15 points. I blended that into the rear reds which have not had a saturation change.

Hi Josh, I love this little boy's portrait in this bold red tunnel! Very well done both in your composition and PP work.

There is no noise, the colour well saturated and well controlled.
Great perspective.

Take care and keep on clicking :)

Hi Josh,
Nice capture. I have a number of similar images of my little one in her tunnel. You've managed to get the colour very neutral which is no mean feat with all the red bouncing around in the fabric. Good composition.
