Hi:

Here is another from the recent shoot I did. I really like this one, but may use CS4 to take away the shadow under her nose. Not sure--would appreciate comments.

A levels adjustment then b&w conversion in Phototools 2.5 and the frame from PhotoFrame 4. Used a bit of softening on her skin--but not really for her skin, which was perfect, but for the makeup the lens picked up.

Thanx so much.

Oh!! That's nice, very nice. Good work.

The shadow under the nose is a little distracting, but it's till a great shot.

This one may be my favourite from the series so far.
It's engaging and smoothly rendered. A very pleasant portrait that draws the viewer to look more deeply into it.
Well done.

Thank you both for the compliments!!

Here is another that the young lady liked. She obviously is attractive (and was very sweet and great to work with), but I like the others a bit more than this. It was nice to have choices of a number of good shots.

The settings were the same (may have been f8 instead of f9.5). I used Phototools 2.5 and PhotoFrame 4 for the conversion, soft light, and frame.

Thanx so much again.
