Untitled

Since the carpet was blue, by desaturating the blue channel I made the

background very light. While it doesn't give the skin tones the same

'pop' as the dark background does (red channel -- hit the right arrow

twice to compare), it somehow 'glows', at least on my uncalibrated

monitor.

I looked at all three versions and vote for this one. The hair becomes too dark in the others and the flesh loses a bit of texture. Here the flesh looks like it has structure and volume.
