I cropped this out of a photo I took this evening. Tried to get a decent one of my grand-daughter but all she wanted to do was make faces/be silly etc. I kept on taking as many as I could anyhow and got this one in the middle of her moving her hands around.
Don't think her face was this red. The original photo showed the background with a red tint and it is cream!
Looks ok in my monitor view but prints dark.

I think it's a very nice photo of a pretty young lady....

I wouldn't change it at all (but just my opinion). Maybe it's the printer that needs adjustment....

Thanks Meemaw. I liked this one the best out of all of them. Even though she is not looking straight at you. you can see her natural beauty in it I think.


Might take the photo to another printer and see what happens.

Me too, Sallyanne, think that the colours are OK as they are, but -just in case you need a version with less red- this is my try

I hope you don't mind me having a try at this photograph. The colour I thought was OK, but I used anisotropic smoothing, followed by wavelet decompose and duplicated layers 1 & 2.

A technique I concocted when I first started toying with GIMP over 12 years ago. Still works. Check the XCF for details. Basically, create a total of three layers and set the top layer to value and center layer to screen and adjust opacity to taste on the screen layer.

Thank you all

This was perfect for testing out all the new Curves presets I just installed. Here's my attempt.
