Colorful portrait of a young icelandic girl born in Sri Lanka... in the style of Librodo.
Cropped in Lightroom, punched the colors and made some tonal adjustment before exporting to PS: levels, curves, some dodge, reisized, sharpened and framed before saving for the web.

Very good, penetrating portrait, stepping well above the shallowness of all the faux-librodos. How much more beautiful, more eloquent, more durable it is for its authenticity. And the stray hair is the watermark of veracity. Top 2 for me. Thank you. 9.
I much more prefer Librodos work that brings out the true essence of the individual, sans all the props. This image epitomizes that criteria, by far my favorite in the challenge. Thanks for submitting.
The detail is exceptional, love the single strand of hair, the corner of her jacket doesn't bother me the slightest but it might some, definitely one of my favorites.
