Peek a Boo Back to Visit

[Mark Fuge]

Some of you may remember Peek A Boo, who lives at Lion County Safari - Florida. She has been one of my best modified images, as viewed by others. Well, she had a revival to show off her best features and wanted to come in for a visit again. Her modifictions were undertaken by CS4 and Topaz. Off course, like many non photog women, she didn't like her photo taken so I had to agree to soften the age lines as well, for her to grant permission to be exhibited. ;) :D

Modifications included; Topaz Detail and Denoise; Cloning of BG to improve space; Accented Edges; Poster Edge; Angled Strokes; Shadow & Highlight and other normal PS image adjustments.

Enjoy!

Mark, I really like this one a lot. The PP work looks great. I might do a small clean-up in the BG to the right of the head. A small crop from the bottom might look good. Very appealing image!Well done.

Cute pose. There are some horizontal lines in the BKGR next to the trunk of the skinniest tree. And some black dots to the right of that trunk.

Thanks Denise and Artie for viewing and comments.

I cloned down the BG light areas around Peek A Boo and removed the clone lines around the tree to the right. As I removed the Poster Edge layer and redid it, I also toned down the poster edge a little to minimize the dots, which are part of the Poster Edge effect. I used the Poster Edge filter to add a little punch to the scene, just for a clairification of why they were/are there.

Thanks again for viewing and comments. Appreciate it.
