I have a dirty little secret, well, really it’s not dirty, but I use Totally Rad actions (http://gettotallyrad.com/blog) on my images to tweak them, you know, add just a little extra. Well… the creator of Totally Rad Actions has a new set coming out -”Dirty Pictures” and I want to win the set! Don’t worry, I don’t really want truly dirty pictures, I just want the actions that will add a little summin, summin to my pictures. Soo… the contest goes like this – create a blog post showing how I use the current actions with a link to the Totally Rad blog and I could be chosen – i.e. I win the “Dirty Pictures”:)!!!
Take a peek at some befores and afters of a sweet little one that I captured this weekend…

The after is shown first - notice how the color just pops right at ya - sweet, huh?

Before is on top, after below - the eyes sparkle and the black and white just pulls your eye straight to her eyes!

This image is fine just like this - great color, composition, decent lighting, etc...

But look at it now - I increased the contrast while it was still in color, ran "Lights On" and then "BAMF - B&W) - isn't it gorgeous now?
