I'm not completely satisfied with the worried look:



but I still like this image a lot. Like to hear your C&C.

I like it too, Rense - pretty lady and she looks nice in white.

I think you did a nice job getting light under that big hat - maybe you could have used a little more, but it's still nice. There are a couple of places where detail is blown out, like her hand holding the hat straps...do you have enough detail in the original to bring some of that back in?

Rain Lily,

Thanks for your remarks. I don't have enough detail in the orginal image, I'll think you and I have to live with it .

I like it too Rense but have the same problem you and Sis do. Also I think the skin has gotten a little washed out. Mind if I make a quick adjustment and see?

I just opened a curves layer and clicked Options > enhance per channel contrast. It seems to help. Try it and see what you think.

Ok, this is a one click thing. Couldn't do much with the dress so I just wanted to see if I liked the skin better.

Lee,

I like the saturation and color better on your take of the image. Rense, the image under the hat seemed underexposed in the original. I agree about the blow out. Did you try using "Ctrl" J and multiply to darken the image and then bringing back the detail on the skin with a layer mask?
