I bracketed +2 over the course of sunset and blue hour. I then added a few flash pops to bring some light back in the trees.
It was all manually composited in photoshop and refined in lightroom with a few finishing edits.
I captured the image using a Canon 6D, 17-40 F4, Mini TT5/Flex, 430ex ii.
I am always looking to improve so any feedback is greatly appreciated!!

I'm uploading this for a discussion in the portfolio pro group... Just showing what the original RAW file looks before applying contrast & brightness settings to it. This is ONLY adjusting RAW settings, I don't think I edited this version in pshop. (Final version has a darker background, from the same image, which is pshopped.)
This is an edit as requested in the Helping Hands group here: www.flickr.com/groups/helping_hands_photo_editing_and_pho...
Editing Steps:
1. Opened in PSE 8 and used the clone tool set to Lighten at about 30% opacity and lightened the scratches and imperfections on her face.
2. Imported into Lightroom 3 Beta and applied the Cream & Sugar preset.
3. Made adjustments to Clarity/Sharpening/Luminance & Color Detail and lessened the vignette.
4. Used the adjustment brush set to Iris Enhance on her eyes, slightly upped the exposure/saturation/clarity and sharpness.
5. Exported to PSE 8 and cloned out distracting yellow portion on the left hand side.
6. Resized to 5x7
