[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this Photograph on the day both my girlfriend Sara and I graduated from university. It was the middle of summer the sky was blue, the sun was shining and we had just finished the end of our education. I took hundreds of shots that day capturing all my friends and family but this particular shot really stood out to me. It was taken as my girlfriend looked on at some of her friends graduating and the look in her eye just seemed to suggest she was thinking deeply about what was to come next…

PP:
Increase exposure
Increased shadows
Applied Lucas Arts PS filter and played with the settings

Hey Ben ... Your note reminded me of the 'Reality Bytes' movie... I can see that in her eyes. Ah, worry not, life is good ...

I like how you preserved the clairy of detail in her eye despite the HPP. Good work!

ComplimentS!
