We didn’t go to the beach this year, opting for the lake instead. So when iHeartfaces asked for beach photos, I had to reach into my archives. This is our trip last year to Hawaii. It doesn’t have a clear face but I like the focus of these ladies learning the hula on the beach.

You have no idea how much I wanted to grab a skirt and join them.

I know that last week I said I wanted to stay home for a while but after going through my archives, I decided that I want to go back to Hawaii – tomorrow…

As usual, I tweak my photos. How I did it…

1. Boost – PW action
2. Lighten – used curves PS4
3. POS – 25% Tra Action
4. Burnt-Out – 25% Tra Action
5. Soft and Faded – PW action (I don’t remember the opacity)
6. Duplicate layer
7. Layer option – Soft Light 25%

It was very early in the morning and I was not quite my a “photographer’s mode” so I was in auto. It needed a lot of help.
