Post image for Fix-It Friday #72 • Photo Editing Fun!

It’s Fix-It Friday, a weekly event where our contributors edit the same photo and our participants can join the fun by editing that same photo their own way and linking into the party! Today we’ll be using a photo that Julie Rivera captured during the last moments she and her husband spent together before his recent deployment (you can read her post about his deployment…but make sure you have plenty of tissues handy.  *sniff, sniff*) We loved the interaction between daddy and baby in this photo and the cute smirk on her little face.

Thank you to everyone who tried their hand on my image! It is always so interesting to see the variety of takes on one shot. I get so set in “my” way of editing…it is a breath of fresh air to see my images done differently.

I’m always drawn by loving daddy-daughter shots. Thanks for entrusting this shot to all of us.

I just have to tell you how much I love this photo! At first I was uncomfortable not knowing what to do with it, but the love and attitude of this photo is absolutely amazing! I’m so happy to have worked with it. I really enjoy participating in fix it Friday’s and I wanted you all to know that. Thank you!
