When I posted orig. I didn't see the noise -ran it thru Define-2 hope it's better.

Looks worse ! There wasn't a heavy crop ,why am I getting noise?

Did you have to lighten this in your processing? Without much of a crop, that's the first thing that comes to mind. Cute pose with nice detail. I might be tempted to crop a little more off the bottom as it's OOF and a slight distraction.

Lana, I lowered the tone thru curves a little-

the background is amazing. beautiful

Very nice eye contact and colorful BG. The rock really hurts the image. Removing the noise was a good move but I would also remove whatever is in the right side of the frame.

Thanks!

Hope this is better.

Denise,

Did you forget to remove the noise?? Getting there!

[denise ippolito]

No, I didn't forget- I ran it thru twice on define2 I can't seem to get rid of it.
