Haven't been posting much lately....sorry! Here is a shot I took the other day of an adorable little girl. I was playing around w/b&w conversion in CS3. What do you all think?

Gorgeous photo! Here eyes and that curly hair really makes this photo amazing. What a heart breaker i bet it's hard to tell this little girl no.

She's a doll. I like the picture a lot but something seems off...like details are missing from her face? Did you do some skin smoothing?

Nope, no skin smoothing at all....I rarerly do any on kids. The only specific processing I did to the skin was to get rid of a scratch on her face.....and a booger under her nose. :P

The image looks good as is!
Was wondering though if you have tried out CheetaPitas action? TTGator put the action together and it's in a .zip file on page four of this thread.

Would like to see your image now and after using this photoshop action...?

I'll guess that she used her 24-70 2.8L since the focal length of the lens was at 40mm and the the f/stop was at 2.8. ;)
Not sure about the PP although photoshop was used.

I'm using Firefox and have installed an EXIF viewer (external link)which gives you all this info.
