I didnt take this picture but she asked what i could do with it so

I think I over did it a bit but what I did was to first create a layer and convert to black and white and ten outlined her face and hat, then inverted it and filled in the color with black. (I'm just learning mask layers so be kind) I I painted around her hair a bit but couldnt get it right so I just cropped it down. Used the warp brush to thin her face out. Did a skim moothing process. Burned a few spots that were really bright. Tried to sharpen her eyes up a bit but they wree all ready a bit blurred so that was limited. Are you reading this?

Very nice... You did a very good job on thinning the face... and I think you did well with the eyes as they were a little blurry to begin with... but your effect gives them a bit of a dreamy look

I hope you don't mind, but I played around with your photo and came up with this, which I thought was a little less rough...




If you wish for me to remove this post, I will. Let me know.
