One of the photos taken for my friend Christoph Vogelbusch. Natural lighting for the main part, plus a flash triggering (@ -1 EV). Ok, I admit it, with such a Canon EF 180mm ƒ/3.5L Macro USM ➜, you're not standing close to the subject, but… what a pleasure! About adjustments, I stuck with something natural, first because of the needs, also because it works great (what do you think?).
  • White balance modification to give a better skin feeling;
  • Removing of the green dominant color (specially under the chin), due to the large green carpet;
  • Small corrections (shirt button, eyebrow).
