I'm not sure if this is going to say glass to anyone, but I kinda like the way it turned out,
wondering what anyone else thinks, or is my head cold just really getting the best of me on this theme:huh

    I really like this one. I'd have a bit more of her finger tips pressed on the glass to give more indication of looking through the glass. The lighting could be a smidge brighter to sharpen her up. It looks just a teeny bit flat to me.

    Thanks so much for the feedback Patti, you are very right, it does look flat. I can try to reshoot, but I just really like the expression and her eyes, and doubt I could get that again. I did play some more in post to sharpen and brighten, plus try to get the fingers more pressed, how does this one look?

    I really like this one, too. If there's any way to reshoot, try to get her nose pressed up against the glass. If not, leave it alone--it does say glass to me, and I love her expression.

    No I like rhe original better. The fingertips look over processed now. Can you brighten just her eye a smidge?
