self portrait with preset

I got some new presets and love this one. the tones make for some great photos so I thought I would try it on myself and I think I like it a lot!

This is pretty. I like how monochromes smooth out skin tones. However, you have lovely skin and color, so it's the color one for me.

Self-portraits are no easy thing to accomplish but you've done it splendidly! Both the full-color and the tone-edit are good but this one is my fav. Very nice to "meet" you, Jackie!

Its this one for me love the tones and the softer focus is great, having said that they are all wonderful examples of portraiture .

the preset brings this up nicely, smoothing out the tones and bringing a little fine detail in.
