Nice shot. The only thing I'd do is touch it up a little in photoshop, it looks a bit dark to me, I'd go to Levels and do like 10, 1.30, 255 and dodge the eyes just a tad to bring them out. Otherwise I love it. And a shame the front of the ice cream was licked, it had nice colored ripples in it, but I'll overlook that - I know how hard it is to NOT eat icecream. LOL!

LOL, the ice cream wasn't that noticable til I started looking more close, I missed it at a first glance as well. I'd love to see your edit once you're done with it.

I likes. It is a good shot, and I like how the whole tonal range of the photo makes the icecream stand out. I read the post above by Sue, and on a second inspection of the photo I saw the 'lick'. It does not bother me, but I am also a big fan of seeing others PP photos to make them look better. So bring it on !!!!....

I think that's a really great image. I tried adding a softer layer, see if you like it. :)

I like it better generally, though the white area of her eyes is a bit reddish. If you could take that away, and make them the focus point, then in my opinion we have a winner.

Congrats again.
