[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
My daughter and her friend playing in the park a Napier. They were having so much fun that I thought I'd have a bit of fun too.

I used Photoshop to desaturate. I then use the warp brush to warp the background to emphasise their movement and the fun they were having.

I hope I have succeeded in making this a fun picture.

hi. nice and intersting work in the b/round. the both looking so happy and good mod. nice shot.also thanx to your nice comments keep its reguler its hlepfull to me.

Hey Sue,
Some nice PP work you got there...but it has a distracting effect on the main subject, as in it takes the focus off the children. The children seem to be really enjoying themselves and I think the filter you choose should complement that. Desaturation was a good choice though. I really like the fun element you captured here.
Regards,
Lakshmi

Good results Sue. It definitely is a fun picture and I bet the girls like it too. It makes the BG quite busy, but I do like it. Good job!

I love how you can see the movement in the photo and the fun on the girls' faces and black and white is my favorite! I see what you were going for with the warped idea... but i dunno... anyway good job.

Very nice, Sue. You've captured their sense of fun and frozen the moment in time. The PP effect is very interesting, but I agree that it distracts from the girls somewhat. I did a workshop using a different filter. Hope you like it.
Regards, Michael

Nice shot Sue. Good moment and expression. PP -I dont know...
