put it in photoshop so i could tell you .. !!
duplicated background layer and did a gaussian blur on new layer in soft light blending mode ..
lucisart/whyeth action on the pig .. sharpened ..
black and white adjustment layer at 61% but painted it out in a mask on the guinea pig ..
levels adjustment layer ..
for vignette i created a new layer and selected an area a lot inside the image border and inverted the selection .. then select/modify/feather at 250% and filled the area i'd selected with a very dark brown colour in soft light blending mode .. brought down the opacity to 81% ..

Well this would have been a lovely portrait of Melissa - but some eejit held a guinea pig up at the last minute and ruined her big moment . .

:- P

Sweet little fella though.
