I started learning DT a few months ago, along with it how to properly do post digital processing. I feel my workflow has developed to an acceptable level, though I do have quite a lot to learn. This image is from my photo adventures over the last summer.
In this image I am toying with high contrast along the lines of clarity at a moderate distance. Think along the lines of stage make-up. If you are up close it is very dramatic and defines facial features. To the audience, the facial features are well defined and look natural.
Enjoy the capture and feedback is more than welcome.
