These are the steps I remember. I like the photo...it's going right to my desktop. However, not being a pro, if someone has a way for me to improve on this one, please do.
PS
Her costume won 5th prize in the contest, mine was 4th (YEAH, ribbon or not)

Simply beautiful. The light on her shoulder a little bit over power but I love the the highlight on her face. Background, shadow on her stomach and the expression are perfect.
As Halloween isn't really celebrated in our country I'll have to assume that this sort of costume and imagery is what would be 'normal' in your country. It's a great image, except for the harsh lighting on her face - just not my impression of Halloween.
