As others have said - a stunning photograph.
So, just a gentle cleaning of the spots with the healing brush, a slight increase in contrast and a little wavelet sharpening.

Practice.    Always a pleasure to practice on a great scan.  Eyes don't appreciate the work as they used to!   :-\ ;)

Here she is with some colour added
Pat

What a lovely warm coloured version Pat...you have really brought out the best features. I love it. The clean up too has really turned out well.
Hope you enjoyed doing it.

That's a really lovely clean up Wiggy....it has a real glow to it and I love the tone. It's quite an unusual presentation hasn't it.

Glad you like the photo Dafydd and hope you enjoyed doing it...you have brought a lot of sharpness and clarity to the photo and I like the rich, warm tone of this version too.

I'd love to have occasion (and figure) to wear a skirt like that!    ;)

Extraordinary nice photograph. It looks like a very theatrical studio set.

That's a really moody version Andy and it gives the photo a different look...I like your choice of colour   and it's very effective. Glad you like it enough to spend time on it. I hope you enjoyed doing it. I love it.

I would love to wear a period costume for a day Wiggy but not sure I would get through it without fainting  ::) ;D ;D
What is on the back of the chair...a wrap maybe?
