The model os Sonia again. Thanks Sonia, for modelling and for bringing the apple (yes I'm terrible at atrezzo).
The session was funny, as always. This is, more or less the shot I wanted to do, black BG and clear subject.
PP: ACR, levels, hue/sat, cloned some imperfections and smoothed the skin, usm

Great idea. The only problem I have is that part right under her nose where it looks like I can see into it. I would have cloned that out, because it draws my eye to it first thing.
I really like this but all I can concentrate on is the pores on her nose and either a broken blood vessel or nose hair. The eyes and lips are gorgeous. I'd just clone out the "blemishes" in this instance, since it's such a closeup.
