Prrrfffftttt, one of those things that you live and learn by. Used all the correct tools for advanced editing, left everything from the original picture in there but you can now not see it.
Found out this is a big no-no. It doesn't matter if everything is still there, by my editing I faded out a major component. Removing a major element does not just mean you can chop bits off a photo, it also means you can not make it not seen by legal tools in Advanced.
So lesson learnt!

Bummer about the DQ but I can see why they dinged you. I thought this was a studio shot. The original sheds a whole new light on it. Great finished product no matter how you came by it.
How strange. I feel that I've seen this sitter recently ...same photographer ... same eyelid too tight over the eye, the elegance, the slow bend ... Yes! Yes ("all fur coat ..." - I start to be more and more like Miss Marple: everything reminds me of something).
Glamour in full bloom!
