Marina I thought the other one was perfect, but this one is much better... the increased contrast really pops... again, breathtaking portrait...!

  Thank you Stefania! I was looking for a certain look in the other image. Trying to copy the movie ad poster. I couldn't resist playing with the same image and getting this. :)
