| You tell your friend Gracia that her name suits her as she is both lovely and full of a very quiet grace. At least that's what this picture tells me. You might try a square crop to take a bit of the tree away and put more of her face in the photo. |

Again thanks, her nose is that way naturally, that's just the way it is.
The blue cast is deliberate. I think it looked nicer with a cool early evening type feel, so dropped the color temp and overall brightness a tad.
The face is touched up and worked a bit, but it's all skin work, no shape changes.
As to her hand being out of focus. That's the 50mm f/1.4. DOF is pretty shallow. No artificial blur was used, the plane of focus is as shot. The blur in her hair above her hand is similar. |

In the preview, this looked like it had a bluish cast. Looks OK in the full-size version, though. It also looks like you have an editing problem running down the length of her nose - over highlighted, artificial selection. It looks like a similar problem above her jawline back towards her ear, but not as intense.
This is a very nice capture of a very attractive young lady. Please tell her I said so.
