If you look at the bakground buildings, the color channel is way too strong for a luminosity channel that you've left fairly high. Atmosphere and pollution make the far objects look uncontrasted and desaturated. If you try to reverse that, you will end up with a false-looking pic Let me apologise myself if i wasn't clear in my first message.

Strange pinkish cast to the foreground buildings and over exposed background. Seems like early morning.

Brilliant eyes and great lighting. Did she actually sit still for this? I never would have at her age...
