Nice job. I like the lighting fx you added to the face. She really comes into focus more.

Thanks, everyone! TalonGE, I remember the Bobby Bare song well, but sadly it doesn't do the historical Marie justice. She was actually known for her beauty, yet the voodoo queen in the Country song is described as "an ugly witch." Go figure. ;0 } Another historic oddity: There were actual two Marie Laveaus. The original's daughter (who was said to look identical) took up where the mother left off, but they said she never had the charisma nor wit of the original.
