Two things would have put this #1 for me ... serious contrast adjustment and clone out the food/grass on the face and lip, made my tt

Great looking portrate. I would have liked to see quite a bit more contrast added and some sharpening to make the photo more vibrant. Shame about the horizontal banding on the lower third of the photo. I think it will do quite well as it's such a nice portrate. GL.

My No.5, this could have been my No.1 with better PP. Looking at the quality it looks as though you have photographed a page from a magazine or from your monitor.
