That's great and your beautiful, but why " Chanson d'ÊtÊ " ?

When I was little there used to be a perfume with that name and my sister was using it. When I edited the picture it brought back those memories and it seemed like a good name at that time

Bine ai facut ca ai schimbat culoarea alba de fundal..nu era in armonie cu restul. Asa ii da un aspect cu totul diferit si accentueaza si culoarea pielii nu numai ochii.

Imi place mult , lasand la o parte privirea de felina se vede bestial detaliul par-piele. Mai ales ca toate au cam aceeasi tonalitate..se imbina perfect.

I very interesting image. Would you mind describing the filters you used in post?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AstarothPriestess In reply to staffdancer [2009-12-27 21:20:34 +0000 UTC]

Well sure
I'll do this by steps if you don't mind because it's easier for me that way.

1. Skin retouch
2. Sharpen
3. I played a little bit with a filter from Topaz Labs.
4. Filled different layers with orange, magenta and white, reducing opacity.
5. Details like the iris, make-up and lips were enhaced with the help of the brush tool using multiple settings (color burn and vivid light mostly) - it's easier for me that way.

And that's pretty much about it.
I hope this was what you were reffering to. I use mostly primitive and improvised methods to get an effect, which usually turns out to be accidental but nice

I was actually aiming at the Topaz Labs and color-layer tricks. I wondered if you might be using one of the "old film" filters--several companies make them--but I like your method better.

Your response--thorough, generous, and extremely interesting--is just fantastic. Thank you!! Your results are obviously distinctive and lovely. Very nice.

Just to help me in thinking through your process, what color was the background originally?

AstarothPriestess In reply to staffdancer [2009-12-30 10:11:02 +0000 UTC]

The background was white and I disliked it terribly so at first, when I did the fill layers, I seeked changing only the background color (in my own silly way) but then I got this result and left it like that.

There is an "old film" filter I like using...it's best for that 50's pin-up look but I can't remember the name. I'll look at the name and reply when I get home. I think it's "Tehnicolor" or something like that :/
