Appealing. A personal view I think this could have had a lot more impact by bringing the veil to cover the right eye and those stray hairs so that she was just looking from the other eye. Good luck
This is a nice photo. I can't tell, but is there a streak from the corner of her mouth extending down the shawl to her shirt that is supposed to be desaturated? It's kind of hard for me to tell.
great image! though you should have cropped between the holes on the shoulder...or just used the desaturate tool on each one, as you can see the skin color...it would hae had a perfect effect
This must have been hell to do selective desat on with all the detail but because you just desated what wasn't the shawl the pink spots that are her skin and such just don't work
