hows that for messing with your head. :P
Anyways, here was my process on the post process.
I first referenced my image with a X-Rite color checker passport, created a new color profile and set white balance off the grey card. applied to all for the whole series. Found the reds looked like poo, but the blues were punchier. image still washed. So I started playing with the color files I already have installed settling on Kodak Portra 160 from VSCO. The reds turned out much nicer, but the overall image was still washed. I did the adjustments found in the image above focusing primarily on her shirt and the skin tones. I burned the background by a full stop down by using the adjustment brush, that whole mask covering the river, the background, and the sky. the bridge deck being untouched. I then did a dodge on the black clothing, mostly boosting the shadows and reducing the contrast. Then, her right arm in darker shadow than anything else, I used another dodge adjustment brush giving a +0.15 to just bring it up slightly. hence why the halo is there because I just couldn't get it right.
