Description This is my entry at a contest at KIMMIDOLLS INTERNATIONAL. Nana on the keychain and Norika on the notepad. These are the only ones I own and the prize of the contest are some collectable Kimmi's. The contest is decided by popular vote on facebook, so, if you have facebook, could you please take a moment to vote on my photo?

EDIT: Well, I didn't win... thank you tho if you voted for me

--------------------

Now, onto technical stuff. I took this shot on my makeshift light box with a warm light and a cold light. I liked the tilted angle and tried to make it look soft by adding a bit of a pink hue. I'm only unhappy that, while trying to take out the noise, I lost a bit of sharpness, my camera still hates contrasting lights. I didn't want to overly Photoshop it, but I couldn't help myself lol

Shot taken with a Nikon Coolpix L120, edited on photoshop CS6

This looks like a great shot as it is. Sometimes when we take out the sharpness, it adds a degree of softness as a whole. I would be satisfied with the result even with the tools you have.

I wouldn't be so hard on your tools or your ability.

Ah you have to be so you can search for ways to evolve, my photography teacher said lol It didn't take me a lot of work, they rules never said you couldn't edit your shot... but contests made by popular vote are sort of... unfair. Sometimes, a not so good shot wins because the person who took it has a hell of an extended family voting for them.

Yeah, nepotism, the bane of all civilizations...is also the reason for its accelerated decline.

It's what is happening, a shot not that special is ahead of everyone by many votes. Oh well, there is nothing you can really do about it, the only one really winning with all this is the company who has the contest, with all this free publicity. Very smart of their part.
