I would like better catchlights as the head as a whole is well highlighted by the background, the eyes look a little dark with undershadows.

Andre, The highlight on her nose didn't bother me until you mentioned it. Fair point! Thanks!

 

Ravi, Thank you! I thought so too.

 

Glen, I hear what you are saying. It was the size of the catchlight in the eyes that I found interesting. I felt the dark eyes drew you in. Different things for different people I guess. Thanks for taking the time.

 

Zeeshan, Thanks a lot. I am glad you like it.

From another David, in the Philippines. Love the shot but I too feel that the eyes are a bit too dark. Soooo, being me, I played with it a little. Result attached.

 

I hope you both like it. I just can't leave a photo alone...

 

Love your work. Looks like you and your models have a very good time, and it shows in your photos. Keep shooting!

Hey Dave! I do like your manipulation a lot. (More than I am going to tell you anyway!) As mentioned earlier, it was the darkness of the eyes that attracted me to the shot. This does not mean my shot is good. I just felt it gave the shot a touch of mystery.

 

Honestly I am flattered you took the time. You even seem to have dealt with the hot nose. Thanks a lot.

David,

 

Glad you like the result. I used the "fill-flash" and "blemish remover" tools in PSP X, plus a touch of sharpening with Focus Magic. BTW... The Blemish Remover is great on "hot spots" since it auto-blends to the surrounding areas.

 

For me at least... Post-processing should always be considered, but not done casually. Sort of like "The Job Is Not Finished - Until The Pixel Work Is Done."

 

Glad I was of some "help"... ;-)

 

Dave
