I agree with them all..this portrait is amazing. I am trying to teach myself to edit photos in order to make the best print possible. Would you mind sharing what settings, lighting, and editing tools/steps you used to create this image? I'm hoping if I ask enough questions I'll eventually catch on to what effects different editing tools have on a photo. Thanks so much! #2514432
