Hi Lasse, Thanks for playing with my photos. I really appreciate the help. You did a great job with them. I don't think you added too much red. Tonight I processed the photos in Capture One, and I warmed up a lot of the shots.
Sue actually kept getting tense. I thought she'd be more relaxed than Garth, but she wasn't. At the beginning of every group of shots, she'd be relaxed, and then she would get self-conscious. Her fiance was a big help in getting her to laugh. Speaking of which, the best photos of the day by far were the ones of the two of them playing around. I'm planning to post a batch of the best ones when I get back from my trip next week.
