As I was clearing off some old smaller external hard drives. I found this image of Allysa in RAW. I thought that it would be worth processing. I used some NIK Dynamic skin softening and NIK Glamour glow... Here it is...
I wasn't sure about the crease lines at her throat and the darkness above her lip and tried to remedy that in this edit. I don't know if it worked. What do you think?
Maybe I should have left it alone. At least I have the first edit saved...

Re: Alyssa, an old image freshly processed
Hi Richard,
I would concentrate on the eyes, the one in shadow has a glassy look and while I know having the closest eye relatively sharp is the goal; I think a bit of balance is needed with this very captivating image.

Re: Alyssa, an old image freshly processed
Nice shot, Richard. Is she still available for adoption?

Re: Alyssa, an old image freshly processed
I love the edit. I agree with John about the eyes. I'm sure you will be able to fix that. It will be a stunner.
Cheers Ole

Re: Alyssa, an old image freshly processed
I love having old images which have been saved in RAW. I will often re-edit an image or, as in this case, edit an image that I have not previously worked on. Here's another of Alyssa that I recently worked on...
