    What she said! I totally agree.

    Another vote here for your daughter shot Richard. Love the "moment" captured here.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Default I love this photo of your daughter!

    Hi Richard,
    I can't tell you how much I love the photo of your daughter. I can see why it was June's winner. I love the light & the moment you have captured. I'm an amateur photographer & my daughter is the subject of most of my photography. I'd really love to learn to take photos like this one. Is there any chance you could tell me about the post processing?
    Regards,
    Nicole

    Hi Nicole, The post processing was quite simple and done mostly in lightroom:

    Vibrance -31
    Saturation -15
    Then a little brown added to the shadows by split toning and then a vignette to darken the edges.
