Some curves, layer works, levels, hue/sat, highlight, usm
Ok maybe not much Pastel,, but the lagoon is in Pastel color, the subject is not, So this is a kinda try out, Will I score high because of the hot chick or because of pastel-like lagon and pastel-like Photoshoped girl?
Or is the rock-bottom. Time will tell

Aside from the fact that this is a picture of a pretty-much unquestionable sexy pose on an attractive girl, the elements here are just unfathomable - I really can't get over this and I think you'll have many faves. The juxtaposition of the gold bikini and shanti-industrial feeling in the background with the steam --- wow --- The colors can pass for pastel but I think that might be the only thing that keeps it out of the blue -- perhaps a red is in order :)
Interesting...girl eating ice cream in a lagoon with factories behind her...not really sure what to make out of this shot but technically speaking I like it...good lighting on the model and surrounding water. Can't wait to see the details on this shot.
Wonderful location. I think this image could stand alone without the ice cream bar. I think it takes away from the natural beauty. The bathing suit probably should have been a pastel color, the gold is pretty strong.
