Sharada

Another Portrait of Sharada. Gosh, this place is such a fucking bore without a friend like her. I can't wait for February when she ill be back for the wedding. Of course, there is a little bit of a controversy war here. Apparently i was so busy shooting pictures, as usual i forgot to be in one and that pissed off Sharada and Mala so much that my camera gear is kind of assumed to be banned at the wedding. Of course, i sincerely lent my ear to this threat and let it out of the other one in the classical way.

 

There is of course some post production work here. No, nothing with the colors and exposure as such. They are straight out of the camera. Removed small specks of scars on her chin, credited from the countless fist fights she had gotten into during school and college and whooped some ass big time that many of them wrote it off in taxes.

 

Noise Ninja'ed to give it a air brushed feel even though there is no excessive touching on this picture apart from the cloning out of dark spots / scars on the chin.

 

I would love to learn how to touch up portraits, if some one has simple tutorials on photoshop that i could learn from, that would be great help.
