This is my friend Corinne again! She is amazingly beautiful and loves to pose for me!
She came to me and said she wanted me to make a photo of her in a Martini glass... So, I had her sit like this so that she would look like she was in a glass. I have to get a martini glass.... then I will put her in it!
For now... she is my entry for Red. And I thought I wouldn't have an entry for this challenge! haha
Don't know how it will go over... My one light wasn't working right and I had a hell of a time blowing out the left side... I had to adjust my levels way up, to blow the majority of the wrinkles out. There are still a few light ones there, I hope it's not a big deal. I also had to crop tighter than I would have liked. And, because she tans, her feet are lighter than her body.... SO... her feet are pale. When I upped the levels, I noticed it took the pale foot and made it whiter.
I wish I could submit the Advanced Edited pic, but... this will do for now!

Lovely model and effective pose. Her skin appears to be very edited and oversmoothed, especially in the torso and on her backside. Though she is a thin model, the pose makes her tummy muscles pooch out a little and it's a bit unflattering, along with the wrinkles around the midsection. I'd think that if you go so far as to edit to smooth her skin, you might go a little further and smooth out the tummy area too. Excellent focus on her face and her shoes. Great touch of red. Anyway, since this was a basic editing challenge, I'm assuming it's been validated at this point.
I absolutely LOVE her expression. Pose is maybe just a wee bit awkward, but overall, a very cool photo. She's a familiar face and you're lucky to have her to shoot. :)
