Fix it Friday #21 Mr. Handsome

It's Fix it Friday again. I missed last week, but I'm back. This guy really is "Mr. Handsome". Here is the original photo.

When I first looked at this picture, I immediately thought the skin tones were very yellow. So I knew that would be one thing I would work on. So lets get going.

-Opened in Adobe Camera Raw.

Adjusted white balance a bit, added some blacks and brightness.

-Opened in PSE7

Added a Levels layer and lightened the mid tones(grey slider)
Added a Hue/Saturation layer to fix the skin tone some more. I chose to work on the yellows and used the dropper to click on a part of the skin that was really yellow to me. I used the slider to get to a skin tone I liked.

-I gave it an 8x10 crop to really give emphasis on his eyes.

-Ran Coffeeshop Perfect Portrait Action

Bright layer @ 25% opacity

Eye Define Layer: using a 100% opacity white brush I went over eyes and each eyelash.

Bright Eyes layer: using a 10% opacity white brush I went over iris' of eyes to lighten a bit.

Dodge/Burn Layer: using a 5% opacity white brush I lightened under the eyes a bit.

Sharpen Layer: at 34%

All other layers off

Edit #3

On a copy of Edit #1 I ran Coffeeshop Give it Texture Action. This is my favorite way to add texture to photos. As it runs you pick your texture. When it is done, it contains two layer that contain layer masks. One layer you can remove texture from desired areas and on the other layer you can re-add the color from the texture. So I remove texture from the skin and then added back the color from the texture. I then reduced the saturation on the photo.
