When people do this: is when this site is at its best.

Lots of people don't want you to edit them but for me it is a learning experience and I been at this 30 years. I have three years experience ten times over.

So I love to see this and try to get a feel for where the craft has gone. Not that I ever plan to do more than have fun with it these days.

I think the largest theme was more light on her face. Either a fill flash or exposing for the shadows would have done that. Of course I maybe way off base.

To answer your question "mysteryscribe" No, I'm an advertising photographer and have been for over 40 years, so there's just you and me as pensioner material. Remember the story about the old and young bulls, I won't repeat it, everybody has heard it. Attached an example of what I do.

With a 2 px paintbrush set to white?

Sounds about right "Reverend" but after using the paintbrush I pulled back the density in "fade" under "Edit" as the right eye reflection didn't need to be as bright as the left eye [as you view the image]

I knew it was something like that. I like the photo by the way very nicely done.
