 Probably the single best image I pulled from the after-show wind down and cleanup of the Tres Sombreros de Copa performance. The rose is quite spontaneous and totally fitting.

The character is Dionysio/Antonini (a play on words for ninny) who is a fool with a heart of gold. This is a straight from RAW to Batch process, resized and lightly sharpened. I am also including a 100% crop.

Since this is a preliminary edit, PLEASE critique and let me know honestly what ya think I can do better.

If you are going for a cd cover sort of look, I think the border works well.

My two monitors here are both pretty well calibrated, and I can make out plenty of detail in the shadows around the eyes. Personally I wouldn't mess with them as any attempt to do so is likely to make the shot look processed, but that may just be a critique of my photoshop skills...

Anyway, it's a great spontaneous capture.

Honestly, this is a lot better than any of the alternate edits posted in the thread.
