The Power of Editing

Check out my new Lightroom Presets & CS3 Actions;) editing magic! These images are NOT cropped.
ORIGINAL:

EDIT: note the sidewalk has NO lines, catchlights are brighter (hard to see on tiny blog images), the electrical unit is gone and the depth of field is more shallow.

ORIGINAL:EDIT: note the facial blemishes are removed, the frizzy hair is more smooth, the depth of field is more shallow and the scene is warmer.
