Framed Edited

Thanks to Rick (@digitalrn) and Art (@emsabh) for your constructive comments ..

What do you think now of this one? A winner?

I like it much better - persevered in Lightroom 3 ... think I'm beginning to like this program over Bridge and Raw!

Now going back to other pix to see what magic I can perform with them in LR3 too.

THANK YOU wonderful 365 critique-ers.

P.S from a Jan shoot, just working and reworking ...

I really liked it when it was blue and couldn't see the changes others were suggesting but now I do and I like it so much more now!!

@kjarn me too Kathy - couldn't see what changes to make! That's what I love about this criticism ... bring it on. Now to think about grain and make it gritty? Nah, not yet, too many other pix to edit.

I like it Carlita. I am still looking at this and thinking. Removing the blue definitely puts our focus on your model, but still, to me, something lacks. I will keep looking. As Nikkers would say, "Don't be a pain in the arse."

@digitalrn You aren't a pain in the arse ... many here don't respond nor critique so fire away .... Thanks

@digitalrn husband agrees with you ... he says there is no 'horizon' ...

@misschuff I was looking at this some more, and I think the color change was ok, but merely just swapped out the grey for the blue, still taking over th ephoto. I really think a tighter crop into the frame, and even adding another complimentary color to the frame will break it up, and make her the primary focus. .
