Little lollypop Lady

She's been desperate to get a photo of her with a lolly like this since she saw a similar one I did with another little girl. The b&w was softened slightly by displaying the layer at 80% (PSE5) so that some natural tone showed through a little. The eyes were duplicated and a cyan & blue filter applied to bring them closer to their natural tone. The lolly was duplicated from the original layer & applied as a top layer (needs some work?).

 

Yes she was licking the lolly & yes she did get messy :-)

 

My conclusions: Impactful & 90% there, but needs a little work.

I'm so tempted to try to move the lolly a ittle higher to cover the nose a little, but don't think my photoshop skills are quite up to it.
