Hi Vicki,

She looks beautiful Vicki, great job!  I just love the glamour shots!

I agree with Kiska about the our left side of the hair needing some depth.  I've had a lot of pics with that haze on it.  What I do is dupe the layer and set the blending mode to multiply, then add a hide all layer mask.  I adjust the opacity of the multiply until it matches the other good darks, this is usually somewhere in the 30's setting.  Then just use a soft white brush to correct the haze.

Hope this helps.........Mary   :hug:

Vicki, I've been watching progress on this one, but haven't had much to contribute, since you seemed to have things perfectly under control.  Still, I wanted to add my kudos to everyone else's.  A gorgeous restoration on a stunning portrait.

Bless
