PP Challenge #15- Make "M" look younger

[Greg]

Yes, but that orange might be about right for about a week post-op. Oh, I forgot, this is just a photo-retouch, what was I thinking? 

[Doc]

Thanks Doc. She doesn't look Orange to me, think I need to get my husband to take a look at my laptop to see whats going on with the color.

[Doc]

The reason I said that was just look at your post with the original and yours side by side.  In the original, her hair looks the correct color for a gray hair and her skin color looks fine (though a bit pale, but the correct tint).  Now if your picture looks ok on your laptop without something to compare it to, yea, checking the color might be a good option.  I know that my laptop would look crazy if I didn't calibrate it!  (Laptops are a "challenge" when it comes to photo editing, as I've discovered.

here is my trial :



thanks for that challenge

[Doc]

I think you did pretty good!  Have a K!  Lost a bit of saturation, but you did knock a few years off!

[realsilverstar]

Thanks a lot Doc - for the words and for the 'k'.

It was my intention to loose a bit of saturation since it's often more natural in my eyes

I'll play. It's been a long time since I have done some photo manipulation using photoshop (it's more fun taking your own image and enhance it. LOL!) Anyway, this is my interpretation on how to make Judi Dench roughly about 10 -15 years younger. Thanks for viewing!

[Jiro]

jiro you did a great job

Thanks. It was fun. 

[Doc]

Nice job!  Have a K!  You made her look good (she wishes!).

[Jiro]

Thanks, Doc. 

[realsilverstar]

yes, i had also fun but doc is right - a k from my side also 

[Jiro]

yes, i had also fun but doc is right - a k from my side also  

Thanks for the K, realsilverstar. I really appreciate it. Imagine what 14 layers of adjustments in photoshop can do to make a dame look nice! Botox treatment is no match against photoshop. ROFLMAO!  

[realsilverstar]

hehe 14 layers so you worked hard on her i worked with photoipmact and yes both is better than botox 

david r you also did a great job - i like also that you changed the colour of the hair to blonde - also a k

[Doc]

And a K from me too!  Quite natural looking!

[Doc]

Wow.   I just had a look at my version that I posted almost a year ago and I can't believe I did that.  The one I posted looks pretty bad!  (Horrid is probably a better word).  So I redid it (I've learned some things since then). 

Let's try this again.

[realsilverstar]

if i'm allowed to write this doc, the new one is much better a k for your new afforts and the result

[Doc]

Of course you are, and thanks!

[Jiro]

Yup! This new edit of yours, Doc is much better than your first. Another K from me, too.
