Lollipop, lollipop

great image!! love the coloring! well done

Thanks for the comment David. You can’t see the smile for the lollipop

You should submit this ot the Selective Colouring Group Jim! Excellent shot.

Excellent job!!

G’day Tugela,

This is just sooooo good!
You have certainly caught the moment here. Just look at the eyebrows as the little girl sucks that lollipop!
I do feel the composition is a bit off as you have her pretty face pushed over to our right and a lot of “unnecessary” image on our left. Perhaps cutting a slice off our left would help balance the image. (Just a thought).
Crystal clear, clean, sharp image with a sparkle in the eyes, great lighting/exposure/processing, very good tonal range and contrast and the selective colouring is a real winner with this one.
Good work that man!

Wow this is just beautiful

Brilliant shot, so much feeling and the s/c is perfect x

Great work Jim. The S/C is just right for this.

Rosalie, I think I did include it in S/C. Thanks for yor comment. I must tell you that P/S was not used at all. It was cropped, sharpened, S/c’d all in Picasa2

Marvin , thanks for your comment, much appreciated

Dennis, once again thanks for you comments. This was taken at my grandson’s sports day. You can imagine hundreds of 4,5 & 6 year olds all over the place. I was just snapping and snapping hoping that some would be ok. No sign of P/S here, this was all done in Picasa2
