Shot in SMA, processed more than typical with noise reduction, levels, curves, hue and sat, selective color, dodge and burn to add some drama, resized, sharpened, and saved for web

Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning. It's day two now and I'm running late, sorry.
I really like this but because of all the color variances, the girl is kind of an afterthought if that makes sense. Your eye doesn't know where to rest. Despite the terrific color, I might've done it in BW. Still, well focused and composed.
This looks a little bit over-processed with dodging and burning. I think that although the colors here are nice, black and white would make the textures and those darks and lights you were looking for really pop. 7
