Going through some photos of my grandaughter today and found this one taken at her 2nd birthday party at Williamstown Gardens . She tells me she’s a big girl now! Ha! I took the photo 18 months ago.
I played with it in Photoshop, Corel Painter and used Lucis and Nik filters plus a lot of hand work! ouch!

Yeah, it’s a mistress-piece Helen.
Too often post processors plop a filter over a photograph and present the thing without any sense of shame. They don’t realize that a PP filters and applications are like the painters’ brushs… to be used delicately and selectively in order to etch out spaces and places of meaning. Here you’ve done that turning to your tool kit to find just touch of various pieces of PP devices that release the angel in the marble… pink marble in this lovely case. You bring us to her table, and leave us smiling and warm and happy as she is in placing her party hat just-so.
Sweet!
Helen Chierego
