Thanks Airy  :) .  I used NIK SE Pro 'Silhouette' .  Did not save but basically upped light , decreased contrast and added some detail.  I think I also increased the Black.  I'
ve played with it before but not pushed as far  ;) .

Ah, that labor group picture reminds me of my childhood holidays in Puri (on the other side of the country :-) )!

Another one on Paris and it's little bookstores :)

Thanks for commenting Elsid, I really liked the slightly slanted shape of her eyes, we were shooting dancing shots, but I asked for a portrait and she obliged
