Would appreciate any advice on high key processing please.

Very beautiful!

Strange. Works for me!

 

I haven't produced many high key images, but I do think that the eyes in this image look quite unnatural. They don't quite keep with the ambient contrast you've established for the photo. Very nice portrait though.

I like what you did here. Her eyes really stand out. Gorgeous child.

This portrait is Beautifully haunting. the eyes speak "volumes". The ghostly effect is so intriguing it totaly draws u in... Execellent work!

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. I had fun playing with this little girl. Messing with the shot in PS was fun too, but if my life depended on it, I couldn't tell you how I got here. Glad there's no tests to pass.

with children.

Beautiful work!

SPEECHLESS, absolutely!

Good portrait. Very nice the high key.

No big experience with high key! The portrait is a very interesting one and well done. If a portrait must capture the mistery of the subject, thi is achieved here. Regards.

So beautiful. Outstanding. Original conception, very well executed.

Hi Audrey:

 

Your work yielded a unique portrait that connects instantly with the viewer and radiates selfconfidence. Can't see how you can improve on this. As for the high key effect in general, it usually takes a very bright but even backlight to be effective. Which is what you seem to have here. As you tell by her shirt, it get's trickier with blondes. --Jim

Just perfect!

Thank you to each and everyone for your kind feed backs.

Jim, as always you are a gem.

Confident eyes and an almost confident expression. Nice

I think Sky has nailed the story of your photo.

Usually, when one speaks of High-key, they refer to tones registered from white to mid-grey. I would say that you've combined high-key and low-key in this exquisite photo.

gorgeous and expressive portrait

that's a whole new level of high key! It's a nice pic, personally I don't really care for it (I think the extreme contrast between the eyes and skin is just throwing my brain, which is 'expecting' them to be similar tones :P ), but very well executed none the less. 4/7
