I was working on the 3rd image in my model series and got stuck at the end. There is a slight tone to the one on the left, but when I up the saturation and add a slight warm sepia cast, it seems to glow even more. Which do you preferr, or neither? Thanks! --Kort

Definitely the sepia (right one) for me... Cause the way she's dressed seems a little bit from an ancient time... So it goes with sepia...

Yup, sephia for me as well. Just about everything looks sooooo much better in that one. Beautiful shot by the way. #:O)

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

I prefer the sepia as well... immediately thought of silent movies with those feathers! The sepia might be a bit too saturated, but the glow is wonderful.

I have to disagree with haukdottir on this one...whatever you do...DONT DESATURATE THAT SEPHIA!!!!

I tried desturating the color...and it does loose a lot of that warm glow. So it is either just a hint or all the way with this one. :) Thanks for your feedback guys and gals, I'll go with the glowing right image. I hesitate to call it sepia since it IS very staturated. Of course, I could always change my mind if someone shows me an improved version! ;]

Ok, since u offered, I gave it a try! The sepia is definitely too saturated for my taste here but I too think that sepia is appropriate for that pic. So anyway, here's my attempt at it! Something in the middle!

Hmmm i guess im a minority here lol, i like the left one best... sorry ;oP

Thanks for all the feedback...the final choice is in my gallery. I do like the middle sepia Pascalou, but the more saturated one just works best for me this time. :)
