 Meet my Swedish niece, Emilia. Location is a beach on Lake Ohrid, under a red parasol with a green net in the background. All the reasons why I went for bw on another image in the July FS :).

I tried to correct the color cast here, but soon gave up. The reddish color somehow seems appropriate for a summer memory. What I tried next (in CEP) was a "vintage" feeling like the magic odriew does, but all I got was a regular Instagram snapshot :).

Btw, that little line on her nose bothered some fs voters. I actually like it.

I think you did a pretty good job with the color cast! She's a lovely girl.

A sweet image - the color cast seems very minor and I also like the line on her nose!

I don't think the skin color is bad at all.

great expression, I actually like the red as it glows her up and sets her apart from the BG

The photo does have a reddish cast - the umbrella explains that. I'd have gone with black and white, too. She's a very pretty young lady.

I looked back and found I gave you a 7 in the July Free Study! I liked it! I think your treatment in the free study was great with a nice dark background. I enjoy this color version as well. The line doesn't bother me, but for a free study, I can see how people can nit-pick the details. She has lovely eyes that are shown well and the glimmer from the earing is a nice detail!

The skin tone looks natural to me. Nice job on the sharpness of the eye detail.
