    Like the lighting a lot! Number two looks almost like a magazine ad.

    The colors are very rich, did "someone" play with Topaz on these?

    The hair seems a little over brushed to me though.

    Thanks Bryce, I used an action on the file, no Lucis. I did dodge the highlights in her hair some and her cheeks.

    Great look! What did you use for the background? Also, I see the tiniest "dodge stroke" on #2...

    Just grey bkg paper. Yeah, I was in a hurry to get these up on facebook last night and there is a spot on the hair/bkg I've got to redo.

    An "accurate" reproduction of a scene and a good photograph are often two different things.

    I like these Chuck. Especially the 2nd one. Cool processing. Care to share? Cool if you don't.

    I like these Chuck. Especially the 2nd one. Cool processing. Care to share? Cool if you don't.

    First I did the major adjustments in LightRoom (however I'm just learning it) and played alot with clarity. Then I ran an action from Warne Noyce that 1.runs an unsharp mask,2.runs portrature, 3.then two curve adjustments. Then I did a brush dodge in the hair and cheeks to bring out the highlights. Hope that helps.
