Can you tell that my dog loves to chew on and demolish her toys more than almost any other passtime? I love that I was able to catch her face like this.
I used Elements to increase saturation a little, sharpen and dodge eyes, erase the hair that went through her eye, and equalize to brighten. Then I used Picasa to add some fill light, add a little glow, and increase the highlights. I think it gave it kind of an ethereal look.
