The tree swing is an integral part of our summer trips out to Grandpa and Grandma’s.

The original was dark and out of focus. This editing challenge is to take any kind of quality of picture and try to make it look better. I couldn’t sharpen it up much without adding a lot of noise, so I softened the whole picture by decreasing the clarity while using an adjustment brush to sharpen her eyes. I decreased the contrast and played around with the shadows, blacks, and whites until I got it where I wanted. I adjusted the temp and tint towards the warmer and magenta sides.
