Was raining so visited a friend. Their daughter was sitting on the couch playing PS2....total concentration. Though it was an overcast, pretty gloomy kind of day, the light on her face was lovely.
Levels, curves, channel mixer to b/w. Split tonings using adjustment->variations, usm. Cloned small part of shoulder showing under hairline.

Gave this a 7. Really liked the toning, especially with the freckles. Crop was good too. That seemingly candid 'catch' I now know is PS2 entrancement - good 'timing' and capture.
Gorgeous portrait. Great lighting and dof and color work really gives it a film feeling that I wish I knew how to achieve. 10. Good luck in the challenge.
