Before/After Scouts

I need to get over it :) but still mad that these don't look awesome.  I feel like I should log it here on the blog though-- since it's all part of this learning process and photography journey.

Before: Darker skin tones make it harder expose properly with the light background.  I also had to clone out that crack in the background..not so good at that yet!

After:-- you can totally see the cloning.  But, I am printing at Costco in 5x7 vertical so the sides will come in much tighter.  That will be good..to give the photo more vertical shaping-- I couldn't shoot vertically because my flash doesn't rotate(need a ball joint head thing) and then horizontal lines on background make it more heavy that way, too.
I am happy that I got a little catch light in the eyes even with the indoor setting and hat.
