This photo reminds me of an old impressionist painting; really pretty and powerful.

beautiful! The angle of this shot really works. Doesn't look like she knew the camera was there - like you caught a fairy in her daily routine. Fantastic!

Really, really amazing. I love the light and the tones. It's just breath-taking. I can't believe this piece of art gets so less attention.

More faerie tale conjuring. I'm not usually one for photography but, your work never ceases to please my eye. I'd love to work with you someday...just a thought.

Hmm. Not so much S.Cal ... More Central I think. Santa Cruz County.

Ahhh...I'm about 1.5 hour south of L.A...relatively new to the Cali area so, I'm not sure how that relates to your locale...

Mostly a lot of Dodging and burning with various layers of curves (usually to slighly cross-process). And the usual skin smoothing and enhancement with a blur layer, the clone tool, and the high pass filter.
I have previously commented on my processing when somebody asked about it on this photo: [link]
just go down and you can find a paragraph about it.
