Cant you guys find something unique to say? 70 comments on how the nose is over sharpened..... anyways i only used noise ninja on her once.... I think it was a mix of her makeup and lighting that made it out of wack I wish I had fixed it though.... :( oh well.
I think you over sharpened this shot...her pores are way to emphasized. my only other comment and this coming from a hair dresser...tweeze her eyebrows...the brows should "frame" the eye...just as you have framed this picture...otherwise I think you started out with a very appealing shot but went way overboard with the sharping, one more note her eyes are engaging me...this is to bad as your shot has such potential...
either its a portrait or not. if so, why not us the blur technique (or a number of others) for blemishes. if its photojournalism, then dont, but desat a bit. seems caught in between. great model and "look"
a really cute girl, nice composition. Unfortunately, WAY too much neat image...or whatever process you used. you should check out the kodak airbrush plug-in maybe.
she has beautiful eyes
i think you may have over done the processing on her skin. Her eyes are great and just jump out but the skin (especially around the top lip and chin) is a bit overly soft
There's a lot to like here, the pose, lighting, composition, and especially the expression. It looks a tad oversharpened, especially the hair right above nose.
Looks like a great subject and nice lighting, but something really bad happened in the processing. I'm thinking too much Neat Image (or similar) is probably the culprit.
Beautiful model. skin looks over-processed specially around nose-eye areas. blotches on nose and top of lips could be removed. Also I would keep the chin in any portrait.. the helps define the face better...
There is a lot of texture beside her nose that is really distracting for me - maybe it's because of the lighting on that side of her face? I think a softer light might help smooth out her skin.
Love the soft lines you achieved here. She really has a lot of personality to her face. Really like how her hair falls over her right eye and produces a nice shadow. Crop and her angle is great.
I like the composition and lighting, but there are strange artifacts in some areas of the skin, for example just to either side of each strand of hair across the forehead, along the centerline of the nose. Are these compression artifacts or a side effect of some other processing? Too much sharpening maybe? Not my area of expertise, but a bit distracting given the clarity of the shot.
Woah, I don't know what's going on with the skin here... It looks like artifacts, or over sharpening, or misapplication of neat image... Whatever the case, it really hurts the shot.
This lovely face would have looked much better with a different editing, something softer for the skin. You can find some tips under the section Learn How'd They Do That, this is one link, under Tutorials another by BRAD link.
I hope this could give you some advice.
Really nice use of DOF and light to draw you to her eye. I especially like the catchlight in the dark eye. The difference between the two seems to convey a depth in her personality in a way.
