Photo tip: Impromptu portraits. Family expectations can put you in less than optimal position to take a picture. My nephew was back home for Christmas a few years ago from a tour in Iraq. He brought his Marine dress uniform with him and it made a great opportunity for a photo. I really wanted a neutral background so I stood him in a garage about 10 feet from the side wall to minimize shadows. I used the natural light coming in from the garage opening. The photo on the right is the original. The one on the left was edited with a free photo editing program using an artist element. Can't even tell the soldier was barefooted.
