RAW Portrait Save

Well, sort of. If it wasn't for shooting in RAW, I would never have been able to salvage anything out of this shot after I hit the shutter without connecting the flash (d'oh!). From there, it was just a matter of cropping, curves, softening and overdoing the diffussion effect to make it look like I meant it all along! Lost a bit of Emily's hair to the right of her cheek but didn't notice this until Ladybird pointed it out to me. Thx LB. :)

You wouldn't think that you'd be able to get that degree of detail, Simon.

Thanks to Adobe engineers, hey!
