Finally getting back to the June before & after side challenge postings. Wonderful editing job you did here! You did an excellent job pulling out the details from the original. The tonal range on her skin is excellent with barely a shadow to hide the features of her face. Her eyes, especially the one on the right, is much more visible to look upon here in the final edit. Love the sepia for it adds a bit of an timeless classic feel to this portrait.

holy cow, it's incredible what you got out of a shot I would have trashed in the first second. Mind listing the steps?

The changes are well done and a good choice to go with sepia look. her eyes really catch you looking around the image. well done.

I saw this challenge too. It is hard to do anything wrong when you have a model that is so beautiful, but your after is sooooo wonderful.

I saw this after the challenge. All I can really add here is that the makeup on the right and left eye is a bit off... a little burning around her right eye would make the eyeliner look smudgy like the left one :) I LOVE this shot!!!!!!

Nice image - Nice portrait feel to this rather than a body part. Like the tones.

Great eyes... nice portrait

this seems more of a portrait than a "body part" sort of image to me, but it is wonderful either way! 8
