I am sure someone will recognise this young girl from my previous images of her but she has really grown from the first photos I shot in autumn 2008.
Converted to BW in Lightroom, cropped, tonal adjustment, vignette, then exported to PS for levels, Noise Nija, levels, frame, resize, sharpening and save for the web.

One of my challenge favorites, without reservation. Lovely use of what presumably could have been a dreary backdrop. Technically fine photography, but it's your ultra-gamine model who really makes the photo fly.
Nice cute portrait. Focal clarity is nice, contrasts are ok, could be pushed a bit brighter on the skin tones. Overall its a nice portrait just not enough for me for this challenge.
