What a fascinating photo. Thanks for posting it. I played around with impressionist, pattern stamp, etc. Was not real happy with how her face came out, but...

You're welcome!

It's a bit too yellow otherwise it's good, Shari.
Nice one, Grant, and great crop!

For my try I adjusted a bit and recolored the water. Finished up with Photosketcher using the watercolor setting.

Here's an illustration try Sylvia; bigger would have been better though.

Fanny is so beautiful. What must she use the water for? Is it like a well? Or like a small stream? Interesting.

For Fanny, I used a faux HDR action, then did much adjusting for curves & levels.

Yes, she is a very pretty girl.
The place where I photographed her is where people used to come and wash their clothes. It's a community laundry of some kind, from before the time people had running water at home. Most of the villages and towns had those in the old days.
I wonder if my great grand-mother ever washed her clothes there when she was young as she was from that little town...

I very much like what you did on Fanny, Veralisa, it looks really good.

Very nice shot. Lots of nice BG texture to work with.

Here's one version.

That's probably because you made her kneel down on a wet slab of concrete in her nice clean dress.

Maybe what she was feeling just showed up in my painting.

Thanks for the big picture, Sylvia, I will remember it the next time I groan at a full hamper of dirty clothes!
