crop.... always believe in the crop tool, it is your friend... lol if it was my image, i would crop the top part off so you mostly have the bust(hehe) and the flowers as the main focus.i would leave the sides alone.this is just a suggestion of course!! i really love the lighting,what did you use? and the flowers are gorgeous! are they from your garden? so, i hope you wont be mad as i am not criticizing because i do like what you have done. chris :)

I'd say it looks pretty good as is. Since the bust and
flowers are your focal point, you might want to experiment
with burning the rest of the scene a little, but I don't
think it's needed.

Who is the bust of?

Kal-El of Superman fame!!! Can you sharpen the head and soften the flowers and blur the background? Bsteph

the bust is of a gentleman by the name of Freeman. He is the owner of Castle Guinn in Triune TN, just south of Nashville. He hosts the Tennessee Rennaisance (sp?) Festival each May. (every weekend in May). I shot this in his kitchen in the castle. The bust and flowers were sitting on the kitchen table under a single recessed ceiling light (60 watt?). I just used the ambient light and played with the settings and took several shots from a couple of angles. I may go back this coming weekend with some other friends, and see if it is on the table again... Jack
