Consternation

Captured her as she exited a "Bingo Bus" at the casino. C&C appreciated.

Great look, and I like the processing you did. The tones work quite nicely. I don't know if it's just this monitor (I'm deployed, so I'm not using my own computer), but it looks like there's a discolored area (kind of purplish) on the top part of her hair. It's probably just the lighting. Anyway, very nice photo.

It is not your monitor, I have the same discolored area in mine.

Technically, looks like a good shot with the bokeh, exposure. However, I am unclear if "consternation" is an apt description. I look at it and think "squint/glare". There is not a setting to give context to the shot other than your text description -- this would improve the shot as a "street/pj" photo.

Weird process/color on my monitor, does seem to have a purple cast

Yep squinting to me and she has no eyebrows ! :wow

Thanks for the feedback... of course, I had insight and KNEW she'd just stepped out of the casino. Thanks for reminding why it's not always a good idea to title shots!

Correct--it's purple as all get out! I'm going to keep working on it and see what I come up with... Lightroom is still new-ish to me and I just know I'll get it... eventually!
