Watery love

Editing challenge... Today's prompt: river, lake, pool, pond.

Original:

Edit:

Again this edit was done with the free Google editor: Picasa.  I brought up the light and high lights, saturated the color a bit, I added a glow affect, pulled down the shadows a bit.  Simple easy and done in just a few minutes.

    Thanks for the compliments! That's my goal in portraits: to make the subjects pop! So it's good to know that it worked

    Great improvement....I also use Picnik for a good "free" editing program or for a small yearly fee you can upgrade. Fun to play around with anyways. Stoppin by from Pixel Perfect.
