Continuing the theme of “playing with Photoshop”, here’s one I did of my friend Jess.
The original photo can be seen here.
This was just color correction – plus I over-saturated the hair and irises, and added magenta to the lips. Then I multipled a Gaussian blur over the image to get the soft glow, and tweaked the brightness/contrast.
Here you can see the difference between the source picture, and my changes:

This one is mostly more experimenting with layer masks – using various hue/saturation adjustment layers. Plus the good ol’ <a href="https://www.dooce.com/archives/photos/01_31_2003.html">Dooce Effect</a>.
