Post processing is personal taste. You may like your beautiful lady friend in deep purple, but my taste is different from yours.

Do you have any images with natural color to compare? People here will look at the original color images and offer an opinion on what looks better to them.

Like Dave said, processing is a personal taste, but the purple tint does nothing for me and detracts from her beauty.

#1 - the way her mouth/teeth are positioned does not flatter her at all. Eyes are over whitened. I'd trash this one.

#2 - very nice shot, but hate the purple tint.

#3 - hate the purple tint. Eyes and teeth are way overdone.

I'd like to see #2 without the processing.

I'm not a fan of this processing either. They look like something that comes out of my printer when one of the cartridges has run out of ink.

I'm not sure why you would want to make her look purple, she appears to be a pretty girl. I don't think you're doing her justice.

If you're referring to the processing, I agree. If you're talking about the images, I disagree. At the very least, #2 has potential. Maybe even #3. The first one would probably get deleted.
