Thanks folks. Victor, good job on the post work. I had one that had her face a bit
more faded into the clouds/sky, and no one could see it until I told them it was there.
So I made this version of it. It may depend on how light or dark someone's monitor
is set. On my un-calabrated IMac it looks good.

Nice take, Victor, but I still probably prefer the original. Be That as it may, it is the...underlying portrait that makes this work...a serious and throughtful woman of substance...in my opinion. Best Wishes, Traveller

I think certain features of the face are too dark, in that they are darker than the blue sky. Here I've adjusted it by adding a layer of the blue sky with lighten mode. -- Victor

I looked at the thumbnail and saw only the clouds. As I was stepping through the images I thought, "clouds," clicked to the next image and then realized what I was really seeing. I had to come back. Subtle and fabulous! - Pops

This also took a fair degree of skill...I am liking it better and better every time I look.
Believe me, If I wanted to knock this image, I would...it is good as it is.

Best Wishes, T

Oh, oh, oh...I sense that many people would find this too...cute or storefront commercial. But you know, I disagree, I really like what you have done with this.

The image has a deep feeling and respect for its subject.

Best Wishes, Traveller
