This is a repost of an older photo, submitted earlier in the year.
I tried Viveza 2 to edit it this time. I've never used anything but Lightroom, and since I like this one, I thought I would just try and make it pop more. Have had the NIK software for about 2 years, and have NEVER used it, until I tried on this photograph...

Canon 7d mk ii

Nice portrait image. I looked up the original, there must be only minor differences as nothing pops out as obvious.

Very nice portrait shot. I like how the light hits the face and gradually drops off giving a very nice effect and
drawing attention to the face. Wish the image was a bit larger to get a closer look.

I am partial to portraits and especially like the light drama captured here. Well done.

Best,

Matt

I don't ever edit photos like that, I leave as is...
In fact I don't even know how to remove something from a photo
