Portrait of Liel

[yairh20]

I took this picture of my friend when she visited Israel last week. Sb-26 on camera right through umbrella. a tiny bit of on camera fill.



C&C welcome! Furthermore, what do you think about the editing?

I thought your title was Portrait of Lie! anc didn't get the association.
I love the eyes but am not sure about the bright forehead and her left cheek.
I think you should remove those spots on her face....Oops...NM...I really need to clean my monitor screen

Excellent, in general.

I don't know why, but the eyes look soft to me. Again, not sure why.

Great overall, though. What was the focal length used?

Also curious about the skin treatment. Was this the good old Olaf painting technique?

Frog, her name is Liel, did you mean her bright forehead and right cheek?
Dray, Eyes are sharp IMHO, 100mm, and good old gausian blur layer +mask + opacity. No idea what the Olaf technique is...
