    retouching and coloring

    Im trying to get a job at some little photo studio (for dogs :thumbsup: ) and they want someone with some photoshop experience. So I decided to retouch a photo and make a new section on my website for it. Here is a picture of my grandmas wedding, and then the same photo after I retouched and colored it. Let me know what you think, or what needs to be changed. Also I dont know if I posted this in the right area, but I figure its a critique. Be harsh and mean! Thanks.

    Looks to me like you did a pretty dog-gone good job. Sorry, couldn't help myself. Seriously, I think it looks great.

    Great job. I have tons of old pictures of family but working on just one photos takes me forever to finish and I don't get results like this. You can provide this service out of your own home if you market yourself correctly.

    Good luck with getting that job!

    Nicely done
    unfortunately I couldn't see a bigger image
    since you're already dissecting pixels, the faces can be be lighten up a bit
