[QUOTE="JPar, post: 161583, member: 10663"] I took the liberty of bringing the shot into Lightroom and making some adjustments. Hope you don't mind. :) - straightened to level out eyes - cropped a bit to center her more - reduced the exposure by .15; it looked a little over-exposed - bumped the contrast by by 15 - adjusted the shadows and black and white level (+26 shadow, -23 white, +29 black) - this was to bring some of the glare down - bumped clarity up by 80, vibrance by 25, saturation by 6 to help make it "pop" a little more - bumped luminance by 100 to eliminate the noise, detail by 75 to compensate for the luminance's "dreamy" effect - bumped color and detail up by 100 Let me know what you think. :)[ATTACH=CONFIG]40852._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
