Valerie II

Valerie reprocessed.

My get pushed challenge this week to take a portrait.

@frankhymus In this edit, I duplicated the previous actions from the first edit (except for Gaussian blur), lowered the green in her only, recovered some shadows in the eyes along with increasing the highlights, and cropped in closer. Final step was to save the image as a tif, then flatten the layers, then apply an Unsharp Mask.

@gerry13 Another entry. Same shot, different processing.

[Ashley]

@farmreporter Does it count when I reprocess based on new knowledge? :-)

[Richard Hickey]

Awesome picture.

[Peter Grave]

Nice portrait.

[Frank Hymus]

It does seem much more polished overall, I think.

[Babs]

Fabulous processing, what a great job you have done here Ashley.

[Gerasimos Georg.]

[Rose]

Such a little cutie, great capture

[Diane]

Gorgeous lighting. She is so cute.

[Francoise]

oh my, a look beyond her years.

[Ashley]

@francoise Ha! Such a relevant observation! She has always been that way! To get a true baby laugh from her is quite an accomplishment! She spends a lot of time studying and calculating.

[Wendy]

I think that you have definitely put in enough work to qualify for an extra shot.
