I’ve been looking at this one from one of the first moments I found out about this site and never felt confident enough to attempt an edit. Well…
Tried to keep it, what I would call natural. I don’t see any reason why Mairi’s face needs to be smoothed or altered in any way. I did need to balance the sharpening: Show all the little details in her face and let the motif of her cardigan(??) be as clear as possible or…
A bit late to play the game but here is another shot with very basic filmic processing and some de-saturation. Looks a lot darker on this site than my screen jpg.
Thank you for sharing!

I went with a warm, soft and rather natural look.
