peteski (Pete) contacted me recently and asked about doing a makeover on a shot of Magda he took at a friends wedding.

This is the original image from Pete.



This is after a makeover.

This next image is with added contrast and saturation and is a finished image in terms of a makeover.

The last image uses my blonde makeover technique.

To protect both our work I will leave the large images here for only a short time, but other members might like to work with the make over image and see what they come up with.

If this isn't what you had in mind Pete, or you want me try something else, I'm happy to do some more.

Keith,
terrific job! This is what I had in mind, I was trying your technique myself and just did not get the results I thought I'd get (but then I'm hopeless with Photoshop).

I'm happy for anybody to use the image for their own experimentations, as long as result is only used to share with this forum.

Cheers,

Pete

Thanks Pete, glad it made the grade. I assume you've downloaded the images, I'll give it a couple of days and remove them.

It was a good picture to work on because it wasn't straight forward to do, although Magda is blonde, in the picture her hair is quite dark, so some tweaking was required to do my best with her. I was happy with my 8th attempt. That's often the way. Thanks for asking and letting me work on her.
