A rework of one of my favorites of Gabrielle.

Converted to black and white, sepia overlay, took the cholocate off her face and tried to even out her skin tone, dodged, burned, a bit of contrast, cropped a bit, resized, and sharpened

Thanks for looking! Will try to catch up later tonight with everyone!
