It’s rare that I can get my very active daughter to sit still for a portrait shot. So most times I just keep shooting until I get at least one that isn’t a blurry back of the head as she runs off. This day, however, she was in a more pensive mood and caught her in a moment of contemplation. The image came out a little soft, but I think the effect works well with the mood of the shot. To add in a little drama to the photo later in Photoshop, I added a layer mask with pink coloring set to low opacity to give it just a little bit of a sunset feel, even though the photo was taken mid-day. It’s a quick and easy way to change what time of day your photos appear to have been taken.
