I did something a little different this week. I’m posting the original SOOC (straight out of the camera) picture after the Picniked one. Makes for more funsies.

I love the SOOC third picture. The girls are too cute!
The edits on the saddle picture are really great, too. I wonder, though, if there is a way (and I don’t know Picnik well enough yet) to see if you could differentiate the browns a little more so there is more saddle-detail definition.
So glad I go to to go to Disney with you!
