i heart faces Challenge - Bundled Up

I wasn't sure if I was going to do this week's i♥faces challenge. I was more than willing to skip 2 weeks in a row because, the more and more I get into photo editing, the more and more I want a DSLR.

The theme this week is Bundled Up. I decided to use a picture of myself. This is from last Thanksgiving when my family took a walk on the bridge. It was COLD. Windy and cold, but the walkway was surprisingly busy. The shining sun was fooling us all.

Yep, that's me.


I blurred more of the background and brightened the blue of the sky. I wasn't feeling very artistic when editing this one. I hate how blotchy my face looks, but I really tried to leave it as is, because my pink cheeks were a result of the wind.
I can't deny that I have sensitive skin.




The MckLinky for Color Splash Sunday ends tonight, so any last-minute entries are more than welcome!

Aw you're so pretty!
I look like Rudolph the red nosed reindeer once it gets cold lol it's so annoying. The wind and cold gets me every time.
Great shot, I love how you blurred the background out so all of the focus is on you.
