I wanted to share and get feedback on the edit work on this image, are there any areas that jump out.

I wanted feedback about the retouch so thought this would be the best place as this is where retouchers hang out?
delete or move if needed

assuming this will be moved soon:

The background replacement looks good to me.
The highlights are a bit too strong for my taste and I would smooth the texture of her skin but still its a nice image smile

I agree.

I buy the comp.

I don't like the strong, clipped brights.

thanks, the background I had to use had blown highlights so I thought it best to match them up. And I wanted to leave the skin looking messy so that it looked like she was living rough.

Sorry hope this dosnt sound like im argueing against your crits just giving my reasons.

Thanks again.

is there a way of notifying someone to get this moved?

I dont think so. Its an honest and harmless mistake. A mod will see it soon smile

Overall, it's very good. A little too burned out
for me... and a little too purple in the shadows.

But thats just personal taste. As for what I can
see at this low rez, the work has been done nicely.

thanks for the feedback guys, I will look into what I can tweak, if I can bring back detail in the wall I will add more detail back in the arm.
I will check the purple cast.

larger version to really pull me up on
