BURN

Though this was not shot today, I am posting
it now as I have just completely reworked the photo
and would like to get some feedback on it.

The main change was that I closed her eyes... in the
original they had been partially open. I also processed the
raw data so that her skin would be milkier white.

This is her natural hair color. It was particularly
vibrant in this shot because I had one of the studio lights
directed only on her hair.

********** GREAT SUGGESTION COLEEN AND ROBIN. I HAVE REPLACED THE ORIGINAL
PHOTO WITH THE ONE YOU SEE ABOVE. I'VE DARKENED THE LIPS AND
THINKS IT MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE -- THANK YOU! **********

Here is the original for anyone that was curious.

Terrific work on the photo. Your changes are perfect. Amazing work on the eyes.

Wow awesome work Mz Snootydog. The light on this girl is great I love it! But the crop is truly stunning. And the work with thre eyes and mouth?? The way the hair catches the light on the upswing?? Big fat vote.

Amazing photo. Quite eye catching.
I like the closed eyes, however I see a dark spot under her right eye (as we look at her).
And how about coloring her lips the same as her hair. That would be smashing. Excellent work Liza.

Gosh, I'm going to have to get a hair blower for my gull! ;-)

I do like the closed eyes. I'd try the lips and see if a little color sparks it a bit more.

I like the closed eyes best. I think her skin could use just a hint of pink in it, or perhaps her lips.

quite a change fromhttp://www.pbase.com/snootydog/image/41605845/medium (I surfed.) I do like the closed eyes...but not sure on the skin tones.

without seeing the original, it is hard to compare, but I do like the way this looks . . and if you did all that work to change her eyes and such . . well, girl, you did a GREAT job cuz had you not told me I'd have not guessed =]
