this is the original picture this weeks challenge is asked to fix:
After my editing it looks like this:
I think I did so much to it that I don't know if I remembered all the steps in order but I use PSE 7.0
First thing I did was made a copy of the pic and use the skin color correction tool but I layered it on in overlay mode about 50% then I used the saturation tool increasing the background color like 60% but masked out the couple. I then put a bokeh called Sound of music from Katie Lloyd Photography blog but again masked the couple. I used a feathering technique to put a vignette along the outside of the photo and lightened the shadow from under the bill of his hat.... quite a few steps but I like the final look.
Great edit.
