fashion retouch

Hi everyone,

Just finished a new fashion retouch. Let me know what you think.

Here's a rollover of the before/after:

I like it a lot.

I would never have thought of reducing the blue and other colours. My initial reaction would have been that they would add to the image whereas you have demonstrated it is better without.

Excellent work.

Best wishes

Like to color changes. Not so much on the work on her. Quite a bit more to do there.

I do not see much change other than color. But good so far.

Why is everybody desaturating all of a sudden? This fashion will not last. It will make your work look dated pretty soon.

it's a nice work! i love the colours!

but I would make some more other basic steps:
the left eye is too white, the right one is too dark. the shadow of the nose is dark, /it should be like the shadow on the cheaks.the legs and the arms have not an even silhouette (maybe becouse of sharping, you should use an another methode) and you forgot to touch up the dirt on the senzor ( the 2 spots in the blue sky on the right side)

+the beauty retouch part, if you would like to have a magazine-like photo..

sorry for my poor english...

I like the color tone added to the image. On the retouching it looks like you only did minor fixes. There is still alot to be done but you are on the right track.

sorry this is digging up a semi-old thread, but I personally like the desaturation. is that all you did to achieve this color change?

Love the work on the sky, but not so much on the model being so desaturated. I do like to use this method a in my work occasionally, but overdone makes it look a little lifeless. you've got some really beautiful blue and warm tones available to you here, use them!!
