Fix-it Friday

Here's I ♥ Faces week 15 fix-it:


Edit 1:

Edit 2:


And now the details. I used the same basic editing, using Gimp, for both:

-Crop

-Erase the blemish on her chin with the healing brush

-Used fx-foundry EG ISO noise reduction

-Bumped up the contrast to 3

-Unsharp mask

And for edit number one I added:

-Fx-foundry simple duotone

-Sharpened the eyes with unsharp mask

-Bumped up the contrast again, to 4

For edit number two:

-Added a couple of textures

-Sharpened the eyes with unsharp mask

So pretty! Great job. I love seeing what you're doing with GIMP. I also have gimp but only know how to use about 5% of the tools on there. Haha. remember the thing you posted about making the photo look vintage? I can't for the life of me figure it out!! Any advice? ;)
