Test: Still having trouble with reducing the file size to acceptable posting level. Not as sharp as original which is a huge file. (130MB)
Suggestions will help.

how do you have a file that large? even at full image size, none of mine are that large.
What program do you use to process and export your image?

I save a JPG and at least in PSE, there is a slider that lets you determine how much compression to use and what the resulting file size will be. Compressing a standard 12 to 20MB image to 4MB doesn't result in too much loss in quality. You must be saving these as TIFF files. These can be hard/slow to work with because of their size.
Nice shot but not sure about floating it on a bkg.

Nice model. Like the background and lighting

what background? the image was, obviously, cut from a shot and dropped onto a black background, there is even some white along her image. I gave up complaining of that ages ago.
I shoot raw with a Nikon d850 which results in 25-50 mb pics. I then use lightroom to correct and import. I select the best and open in photoshop to clean up minor blemishes etc. This can result in very large .jpg files. On some I then use a filter program thru photoshop call portrait professional pro. And maybe smart photo editor for frames and effects.
Thanks for the input and suggestions.

Interesting comment. I have hundreds of images with similar background SOOC. What proof do you offer that this is photoshopped in?
You did remember that UHH will automatically reduce a file to a small size to enable faster browser loading. You have at least two choices, either make the original available for download or reduce your file size to the UHH maximum sizes (but when reducing your file remember to use Bicubic sharper setting rather then average...
Nice work though.
I 24-megapixel image as a tiff would not be that large, you must be doing something wrong. The Raw images off my D7200 (16 Megapixel) are between 18 and 21 MB. A very high-quality JPEG is around 5 MB. Now native PS files, which include undo information can get huge.
If you are sizing for printing, you could get a file size as large as you state, but that's about the only way it can happen and you shouldn't be trying to share that size on the web.

sorry, when I now look at the image on my monitor, I do see wrinkles and shadows on the background. There is still a sort of white outline around her body though. Perhaps that is also a figment of my monitor.
