Hi, this is Terry's wife here.

Both of your entries are brilliant!!! Obviously the angel one looks more like me whereas the alien one looks more like Terry :-)

Robert, This is this original straight from the camera and nothing's been done to it. I see what you mean about not much etc to work on, but I know the magic that I've seen other DPC'ers doing to shots.

Ennil. It's just for fun. You can be as imaginative as you like. Make Oliver into whatever you like, we won't get upset :-) kpriest's idea below is great, or a sweet angelic look would be fun too. As I said, do whatever you want to.

What am I doing it for? Well, just fun really. Ollie has his own blog so I guess the best entries will go there, then when he's a big bigger he can look back to see what the DPC'ers did to him.

It's odd. I'm not referring to the "quality" of the image per se; it's just that when I open it up and make a hue/sat adjustment layer, I can only drag the slider a short distance on saturation before it starts pixelating. Typically, this is what happens when I try to do hue/sat on an image that's already been saturated before, so... I wondered.

Robt.

I think I know why... I had to bump up the ISO quite high as the lighting isn't that great. I think it's noise that's being picked up?!?

This was too precious of a shot to deface.
This needs to be framed and on your wall.

-----------Original---------------My version----------

Thanks for supplying the full-sized original too.
What an amazing difference that makes in retouching.

Edit to add:
Got bored and had fun:

Edit again to add:
"The winner will get a gift membership for one year."
If selected, can I donate it to someone needing it more than I? Always someone around short on funds or similar.

Nice one Brad.
A nice rendition.
I feel as though you've turned it towards the parental/smaltzy/sensible direction.
That's fine.
I can do that too :-)
