content: Quite good that, almost a Photoshop Jedi! I like the way they removed the fabric folds, it's quite hard to do that especially at a level of detail that shows the fabric weave pattern.

content: I worked for the government for many years. When I started the first thing that asked me to do was take a photo they had of a bunch of politicians in suits and change the color of the white socks two or three of them were wearing in the photo to black.Yep, you can do wonders for clearing up skin blemishes, removing wrinkles in clothes, cleaning up the background, and even make eye lashes longer.

content: You know when you buy clothes from a catalog or on line and that don't look right or fit when you get them... Just like McDonalds Photoshoped cheesburgers...

content: Not Bad Dave....*thumbs up*My Guess is, you:- Removed the Bunny (obviously)- cleaned up the dirty ground and the body marks with the patch repair tool- Warmed up the white balance/ Color Temperature- Unsharp mask to sharpen- Selected the Background and brought it up in Brightness for about 1 to 1.5 F-stopsI do see a bit of banding behind Sagan, on her right (her sight of view) between head and shoulders...did you use a JPG or RAW data? You could Select the Background again (hard selection mask) and blur it (gaussian blur) to get rid of the artifacts.

content: Eyes need to be a deeper blue with larger pupils, it makes the appeal factor higher (Yes, I do know art designers, and have on occasion had to do the scan and first pass blemish removal before it was totally remodelled. Dedust, scan the negative/positive then remove the remaining blemishes then save for editing later).

content: I would have removed the highlights on his nose and the one in the corner of his lip, and move the catchlights in his eyes into the pupils.
