I love editing photos so when I saw this challenge I thought I would play along. The original picture is really pretty nice, it is just alittle dark for ma and kinda flat. The girl is really pretty so it really is an easy edit.

I cropped it alittle, then added a few textures, some in overlay mode, some is softlight and one in dodge. I fixed mup her skin alittle and thats about it!
