Sorry Brent but I don't like the colours but then I'm 35 years older than your client so what do I know. I'd love to see the original. It looks like it could be a great shot!

The almost original can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brentgambrell/3453158575/ I did simple contrast and clarity to the photo along with a blur technique to give it a slight glossy tone.

Also, my photos from that shoot can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brentgambrell/page4/

hi there Brent...
looking at your photo reminds me when Im using a film... this is what happened when the you keep the film too long in the exposed area... or maybe deoxidized..(if Im using the correct terms)
Im sorry I have to agree with Nathan... but my friend.. the original shot is lovely... great lighting... I think you should repost it...

Not bad just not to my taste. As I said it's subjective. As a child of the 60s/70s I would have colurised like this

From DPS


Do you like that? Probably not but it doesn't make it bad, just different.

I prefer the original too, the first reminds me of the shots I used to get back from the printers with stickers on from when I used disposable cameras
