 This is Starla, 8. She was a bit shy so I had to sneak a shot when she wasn't looking. Amazing what layering can do because this shot was so dark you almost couldn't see her face. Did several layers using Color Efex pro and then did a reverse layer of a light gold texture in vivid mode and BOOM - her face popped off of the page. :~)

Wonderfully rich color and detail. Looks fantastic in B&W as well...like a charcoal drawing.

love the texture. the thumbnail made it seem like this would be a really haunting photo, but it's actually quite pleasant.

Thank you Judy! You give me so many ideas to try. This is such a delightful portrait of her, almost looks like a woodblock painting. Wonder how it would look b/w?
