Default A Photoshop Save

This one was embarrassingly underexposed (we had just changed up locations and I forgot to change my settings), so it was a bit of a 'save' job. I went with a more dramatic crop, and actually ended up LOVING it. Isn't it strange how an expression can make someone look so much older, or younger? I think she looks angelic here, but also much older than her 9 years. I removed her glitter makeup in this one too. LOL

GREAT save! How did you re-crop, did you just rotate the canvas?

Nice save....If I could have only been so lucky last night doing some low key portraits....I was trying out one of my crappier lenses to see what I could get out of it. At ISO 800 I gave up and tried another lens, but forgot to change the iso back down. ;( Some of them came out great, but not without a lot of editing...;( Maybe I'll post a few in the critique forum and take my lumps like a man...
