yeah that crop looks pretty shitty if you ask me. The original picture didnt need editing, she liked the scar on her forehead and i liked the landscape picture. that crop and "skin smoothing" makes the picture look worse, much worse, she's 41 not 19, i like to show things how they are, and usually never edit my photos. if you take a photo and shop the hell out of it i dont call that photography anymore, thats just knowing how to use pp.
Sorry bud, no offense intended. I never claimed it looked better I was just having some fun with it. Won't do it again!
Aldor, fantastic shot. I love the composition and the atmosphere is amazing.
The black and white works great here. Very, very nice
