I agree . . . nice photo.

Very nice renditions posted.

n the one I draganized (?), and the other I just played around with smart blur, followed with a color tweak and painted over a mask for her eyes-colorizing them. Not sure I like how the blonds translated after saving it for the web. It changes somehow.

No, I didn't take the photo, I found it somewhere linked to something else that was here on Retouch pro.??

LQQKER, I like the soft colors you got, very nice.
gHulms, I like the second one better, the first one has odd high lights from the nose to the forehead.

I really enjoy all the various styles.
