In a Fur Hoodie

[pjaye]

I love these. Really nice job on them. With the majority in that I prefer the first one. The second one seems to lose detail in the nose area. But as always, that could be my laptop too.

I like the pose and processing in #1, but I like that #2 has more fur detail.
did you try pushing the shadows down a little in #1 to bring out just a little more detail?
or was it that black on purpose?

Boy did my mind go right to the gutter when I read that title.

Yeah, sure... pull the other one! In order for your mind to go to the gutter, it would have to have left there in the first place!

Thanks all!
Designer, thanks for the edit! You got it closer than I did! The edits I did were really cold and harsh.

Pix, yes I brought the shadows down a fair bit, here is a colour version of a different shot that shows where I started, I try to get the exposure with the most potential and jump off from there.
