Here is the one in just hi-key. No gradient filter applied. Personally I kinda like the metallic gradient filter one better of the two.:)

This one is great too! I also prefer the other one!

... and I like better this one :o)

Fine view!
(I prefer this one :-) Cause of the irradiations on her nose and mouth on the metallic.)

I like this one much better than the metallic filter. Probably simply because PP looks less obvious, and the colour tones are really well fit with the model. Or maybe just because I love high-key and this one is remarkably well done :)
Great shot, by all means.

Very lovely Jo. Could you explain to me exactly what you did here? I need to suck up your knowledge!

Thanks everyone:)
Sher, all I did was up the saturation and contrast, adjusted the brightness and then add a glow effect in PS. If you have a pic you'd like to try it on, let me know & I can walk you through it.:)

Beautiful portrait, soft and contrasting at the same time. I thought that the main effect was about focus or reflections and start to think how the camera did that. 8-)

great, i love that mouth treatment, those dead color works so well with the softness atmosphere, what have you done?, if you want say it of course, have you used "difuse glow" filter, selective erasing and something more, am I correct?.
Such a good picture.

Thanks:) I used diffused glow and neat image for the softness. Then I pumped up the contrast very high to get the hi-key look. Thanks again:)

such a good treatment

Nice combination of creative effects. I would prefer to see a bit more of the sunglasses for more contrast against your skin. To sum it up. Beautiful.

Great treatment on this. It kind of looks like it's out that movie Ultraviolet.

¡Bonita fotografía! Me gusta el efecto conseguido.

Everything works well here. Very attractive image.

I much prefer this one, wonderful image, great treatment

really really beautiful work, great colour, softness and beauty throughout
