When I say 'candid' ...

you probably think 'unposed or spontaneous' in relation to photography.
I'd also like you to think 'honest and sincere'.
My photos are not always unposed, but they are always a 'sincere and honest' expression, that I love to share and occasionally show off. ; )

Fix-It Friday #72

It's Fix-it Friday at iheartfaces
Here's the original by Julie Rivera:

Her husband & daughter before a recent deployment.

Photos like these can always bring a tear to my eye and a knot in my stomach.  My husband retired from the US Coast Guard in 2006 -- and while our daughters and I hugged him long and hard when he had to deploy for schools, chemical spills, runaway bouys, hurricane disasters or routine duty, he never had to leave us going to fight a war.  I can't even begin to imagine the depth of that emotion, but I very clearly know the joy of his every return.

Thanx to Julie for supporting that service member that fights for all that America represents!

Here's my "fix":


I gave a little more blur to the background, made her shirt a bit more pink, and adjusted a few levels, as well as cropping and adding a border.
There are lots more fixes @
