You did an awesome job .Excellent .But that is why you are the best
Beautiful model. Great shot. Interesting lesson. Thanks for sharing.
Be a better choice in the forums for everyone to learn from.
Absolutely beautiful..
it do make a diff. super postwork
Wonderful postwork.
Excellent lesson my dear and this correction is necesary... Well done!!! Good sunday and kiss
Of course there are two sides to this: too much postwork can kill a picture. I don't like 'plastic' flawless skin, so I prefer the left image for the model, the right one for the background. But I must admit I know nothing about glamour photography ;-)
Perfect demonstration... thanks for the lesson, David ! :~)
I see very little done to the model herself, but the background definatly needed to be cleaned up. Very good lesson to point out your talents and what it takes to make a good shot great. Thanks for posting it.
good blending with the paper background ,nice job.
Perfect example indeed. Photoshop is our friend, lol. Beautiful shot...both before and after. #:O)
Thanks for the info! It took a couple of minutes of studying the images for me to see what changed, but now that I do see it, the difference is dramatic. The photo has been greatly improved in appearance, and it looks perfectly natural. Top notch work.
i like what you did to the back ground it does give your model a slight 3d effect. As for your model needing flaws put right WHAT FLAWS leave her as she is
If one looks at the two images slightly crosseyed, letting the two models merge, she is moved a little forward from the background.
Beautiful model, great ligthing
great lesson and thank you for it
i like the postwork more, seems to soften the edges, but can it remove clothes?
I prefer the before, because the after loose defenition, and too bright.
Good postwork, good photo -- but where are these "skin flaws" you speak of?
