[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Meet my niece, Frances Kaye.

One of her fondest dreams is to become a model; even just a print ad model. We always tell her that she needs to shed off those extra pounds. But she said she eventually will.

In the meantime, with the magic of Photoshop, I fulfilled her dreams. I am posting this picture in a form of a fashion magazine layout. I am sure she will love this. And she is now in cyberspace... She's not just local celebrity but international as well. :))

Worked on layers and color balance.

lots of color well done manny it really looks like an fashion ad of some sort. I like the the framing around all of them.
Your making her dreams come true thats a good uncle!

It's a nice shot! Personally I think she looks lovely as she is, and I'd gladly have her as my model. I might consider slightly softer lighting, and I'm not sure that a green skinned version is very flattering! Two points for your model though :-D

Excellent presentation, Manny, and great of you to provide this moment of instant stardom to Frances. A fine idea to use the varying neon tones in the different snippet pictures. To me it seems like she has the looks and spirit to make her dream come true. Well done.

I agree with Adrian. She is lovely just the way she is. :) Tell your niece to hunt for that dream, as long as it keeps her happy. And i must say, nice of you to help her full fill her dream. She has a very playfull pose which i like and post process and ensambling is well done.

Great too see your work - nice and artistic, even I prefer like she is ;-))

She looks fine even the way she is Manny! Her radiating smile makes her look wonderful. You have done a very good job with the Photoshop - hope she likes the present. :-)

Great composition full of effects !
Itīs very good !
Well done !

What a control...A very nice layout. I particulary like the way you cropped images and the colours variation you choosed. This is very, very well done and your final result is awesome.

very good exposition !full of expresive,vell done !

Kind of a mildly cubist feel to this, and it seems to suit the model. She'll no doubt be pleased at her Warhol repetetiveness!

your note makes me smile. the graphic performance deserves many thumbs up and your niece deserves to be a model, she has great smile. thans for sharing

Great Photo..Well done.
