This a friend of our niece at their graduation Saturday. I just got a quick snapshot of her outside the building, but I wanted to have something worth remembering. Do you think the brown works, or should I have left it in color? In fact, is there any hope for it at all?

Any comments or edits welcome.

I agree! It's much better than the other one which is a decent shot already!

The brown works and it's a worthwhile keeper for Jenny and those close to her.
The download is very nice.

Thank you all so much! It's always nice to get others' input, and I agree with the consensus. I think she will be pleased with the brown. :thumbup:

Now just give the same treatment to the borders and background of the 2nd one, but leave it in color for a real treasure!

Yes, the sepia looks really good.

Try the same steps in color to isolate your subject...then compare.

most definitely the sepia one, plus the crop eliminates all the distractions also, very well done
