Great shot, love the processing. These are always fun and not as easy as one would think to pull off. You did a great job. I might have cropped a tiny bit more from the right side but that is just me.
Oh wow, this is great! I've been trying to achieve that effect that you did with your eyes and the pajamas and I can't get it. (I'm horrible at editing!) I like the lighting on your face too.
KARI!!!! I am in LOVE with this shot!! You have come a long way baby!! I like the selective desat... it really makes me focus on your eyes and the red pajamas :)
Nice, the angle works really well. My instinct might have been to add more depth to your face by lighting one side more, or going for the "beauty dish" kind of light that also fully lights the face but is I believe directed more from above (small shadow under nose).
Great lighting. Love the effect on your eyes. Very striking. OMG the first thing I thought when I saw you that your were Hill88 on YouTube....Must be my imagination.LOL!
