[QUOTE="wud, post: 400757, member: 13578"] That will get easier! I've felt the same for a looooong time but actually think I'm finally getting better at it. 2 tips which helped me: turn the light on your computer screen all the way up minus 6 steps. If that can be done on your computer? That should be more or less a normal view, unless if your sitting in very bright sun of course. If in doubt, look at another image you already have finished and back to the one you are editing. For me, that's really helps seeing what it is I have a problem with (in my post) which I couldn't put a finger on. But skin is a bit difficult when you are so close. But unless she has bad skin, I'll say go for a retouch which no one will notice. Small dots/acne/whatever I clone away, if I retouch all skin, I do it in a separate layer and then turn visibility to 0 and slowly up from there. A little back, a little up. Until I get the look which looks natural :) [/QUOTE]
