2018 Calendar potential submissions

[Joani, Skadi & Elli]

Looking for some expert eyes to help weed out photos that are not worthy for submission to the 2018 Calendar.  Please critique and I welcome any suggestions to improve through lighting, cropping, etc.  So, I am hearing through the "grapevine" that some members are willing to help with editing.  They do such a great job and are giving of their time and expertise...so take advantage if you need them.Thank you for your patience and your opinion is valued.

Sorry but the last one just doesn't seem tone b focus. Luca always looks disheveled but his coat can still be in focus and he and Ned have similar coats.

Thanks, F.  I appreciate the constructive criticism.  As the years have gone by, I am less and less able to get Ned in focus.  I need to try harder! :-}

[F, Calla & Luca]

I hope I did not hurt your feelings. Just aim for the eyes and the rest works out sometimes : )

[Joani, Skadi & Elli]

I can try to clean this one up a bit...even if you decide not to send it...it's very cute and a great keepsake.

Can you email me the original unretouched version? It's a cute photo. But maybe you are making the file work too hard by pulling up shadow detail. And the orange color is not good. [e-mail]

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

Done! Thank you.

Looks like we aren't going to make it easy for you to pick 'the best'.  Too many good photos, everyone has a favorite.  My personal favorite is #5 love the colors and sweet expression.

Hello ladies, wondering if anyone can help lighten Sassparilla's eye area?? TIA

[Donna K & Quincy]

If you want something like this, I can do it. It also needs to be cropped a little on the left if your file is large enough or it can be cloned out easily.

Good job Donna.
