tina again, please comment on skin

Jaraviss

we were in the waiting area...the walls were painted this blue color...and there was natural light coming from a south facing window (kinda far away) and also overhead flourescent fixtures...there was also a north facing window in the room beyond (you can see it blurred in the background)
we were just goofing around and i shot this pic.

got home (finally) and did some PP in photoshop.
compared to my last one...i think i held back some with the skin post production method i'm using and i think tihs one is more successful

your thoughts?
i really like the blues walls in the background

maybe if you look at this image first....comment how you will.
then later...i'll post the original image.

let me know what you think!

thanks

Not bad, i can see blue tint, probably with all the lighting that you described. As far as skin, it's smooth enough and looks natural. I think i would add little magenta on her face, just to balance out that blue. Good going.

Her skin looks good. Over all it looks like it may have a slight blue cast to it. I adjusted the color balance and slid the slider from blue towards yellow a little bit and it seemed to improve her skin tones without detracting from the blue walls.

Just a thought.

Good! The softness is great; you didn't lose important detail like last time.

thanks for your comments guys...i really appreciate it.
i'll try the slider to adjust it a little more.

i'll keep practicing...here's the original

now you can see where all that blue came from


thanks!

I think you did a great job with her face!
My only knock is the catchlight 'enhancement' in her eyes. Looking at your original, I don't think you needed to do much, or anything there, and the round white spots just don't look right to me.

I suppose for the purpose of simplifying the overall composition, the white rectangle top left could get cloned out, or mostly out...
