So I have been watching the threads this week cuz I've been home sick and I tell ya, it's been so much fun!!!
I saw the holiday challenge and thought christmas jewlery! So I read all the threads and faidoi mentioned Victoria's Sectret!
I immediately called up my friend and asked for her underware! (that sounds so weird!) Glad she had something 'christmassy'!
As for PP
I did the shadows & highlights as seperate layers in screen & multipy modes.
selected everything but the underware & G blur.
History brush to give back detail to some areas like the fingertips & belly button.
Seperate levels adj. on the background.
Healing & cloning
I think that's it!
OK, so I know a few of you felt like you wanted to see the hand in focus but I stand by my idea to make it blurred!!! I actually had it crisp in the original and gaussian blured most if the image. I thought any catalogue would want the emphasis on the product. Thanks everyone for your comment & opinions! Always always welcome :0D

I give this one a 7. My issues with this pic is the dof is just to shallow for a catalog shot. The position of the left hand is a little off as well. It's a sexy shot though.
I've voted this like one of the first ones, but I still don't know what to say about it.
i like it, that's a fact. great DoF and the colors of the (gorgeous) female body are very nice. I like the lightning too!
The only thing I don't like about this photo is that hand is blurry. It would of been great if it had of been crisp. The colours and tones look good. Well done.
i like this because it gives the feeling of light heartness and fun. i also like the fact that it is done in a very tasteful mane, also the colors and clarity of the pic stand out very well. great work. i would give it a 9 if they were to be scored.
