Actually, my daughter is quite happy. :)
We are on vacation in a rented cottage... no supplies at hand... so I made a mask out of leaves and a twig (obviously).
Six quick snaps and then we went out to wakeboard on the lake. I hope my score doesn't reflect it. :)
crop, Lucis layer, saturation, shadow/highlights, Black/white sepia blend layer, reduce layer saturation, burn left top highlights, perhaps a tad light version of Poster edges (I can't remember -- I know I tried it, but I might have deleted that layer), border, burn/dodge eyes, sharpen, Save for Web.

That's pretty unique mask and a processing to match it. The leaves and eyes play together nicely. |

This might have been stronger done in low-key rather than high-key. To me, sadness is better conveyed with darkness rather than light. |

One of my top scores in this challenge - I really like the created mask - very well done. The muted tones and her coloring work very well together. |

Aww, why is she sad? That is no good. Nice job on the mask, I've never seen that done before. I love her eyes, very good job isolating them. The contrast or sharpening seems a bit harsh. Still very effective image, I am drawn right into her and the mask. |

I am not sure about the title, but the khaki theme is excellent here. The graininess adds to the shot. good composition as well. |

Daring. Strange. Not to my taste, but nicely done and nice processing too. |

the eyes look good, i feel like this has a little too much editing, in my opinion. |

Oversharpened in my opinion. This has made the models hair look like straw and made the leaves look dried out. |

truly a novel concept. colors (or lack of it) also adds a "sad" effect to the picture.
very well executed. |

Different and I sorta dig it. Good luck! |

The eyes are amazing! The "mask" however, being the same color as her eyes, kind of mutes their wow factor. still a high score from me! |
