Every so often while we’ve been taking the ‘citizen’ photos for the Histories of Newark book we’ve had a reason to actually set up a photo which requires some fairly serious retouching.

Original #1. From this one we got the overall feel of the piece, the two ’strong’ guys and the lady’s feet.

Original #2. From this one we got the lady and the third guy.

Retouched. I love the look on the face of the middle guy. I can hear a kind of Beavis and Butthead voice saying, “We got a big one this time. Huh huh huh huh huh.” The one thing we didn’t do that we may go back and redo is the middle guy’s left arm. It is in a better position in #1.

Some days this is just plain fun.
