 This is a candid I took at the free open air circus the otherday. I was fascianted with this girl apart from the fact she is absolutley gorgeous she was there it seemed with other circus students and she just did'nt seem to fit the group she was too soft and perfect!
Heres the original
This is where the RAW software comes into its own. You can tell the original has some strange red tones in it. Well it only took a few seconds in Raw to fix!
Lomo action ( funnily enough I toned most of it down in hue/sat later on!
(I notice suemack does not have this in her port anymore it's an excellent texture and I love its name ;)) Colour dodge 58%
Colour burn 27%
Softlight 90%
Curves x 2
Hue/sat
Color balance
I am also working on a better way of erasing so i worked on brushing of with masks each texture layer

This is a great, relaxed looking portrait - she just pops from that lively background.

Great colors and lines in the background. Nicely enhanced by the subtle overlays.

This almost makes me think of the 80's. I like how the layers really age the shot and the acid tones aid in that as well. NICE!!!
