Hi all

I am a Retoucher / photographer from Germany.

At the moment i dont do that all for living... in 5 years i like to do that for living.
So i have to get better and better.... i hope somebody will let me know what i can do better (specially to the High End Retouchers here)

Here is my latest retouching work.

im not high end (yet) but heres my opinion

you cleaned op the skin in the face nicely, but it think you blurred it too much, this makes it look fake. you also blurred the clothing, as a result the white print on it isnt as sharp as before, and on the edges of the clothing, the skin gets this black blur, you should mask that. I would also remove those little hairs that are sticking out

Hi Diego
Thx a lot for your words.
I have darken the place around the face and also blurred it a bit to bring the focus of the face.
I cant see the black blurr.... you mean the shadow of the clothes where you can also find in the original?
Anyway... shadow or blurr.. i think i have to remoove this.*g*
The little hairs also? Ok.... i will think about that.

For me is important to find a personal retouching style and dont destroy the pores. But i am not sure if this kind of retouching will run in the higher class.
Therefore i asked about some High end Retoucher.

I hope more people will give me there opinions.

To you Diego.... thanks a lot*g*
